There's no telling what my uptime record is simply for my PC, but I can definitely tell you what it is for AOL Instant Messenger:
15 Days 12 Hours
Almost beat my friends record. So close. She beat me with 16 days on a Hewlett Packard.
15 Days uptime on AIM is a feat, especially if your on-campus internet is unstable.
I realized later that I had installed numerous programs (battlefield: vietnam, desert combat patch, FTP programs, office 2003, etc.) without restarting my computer during that time (the AIM record) so I think I technically won. My computer was getting bogged down at the end due to no restarts and mass program installation and AIM eventually froze. My friend's Hewlett Packard is a browser machine and that's pretty much it. I declare an unofficial victory
