Now that AIE has it's own Jabber chat up and running, you will want a way to use it. For that, you need a Jabber client. This guide walks you through setting up an account for AIE's Jabber service in Pidgin.

Prerequisites

(Just click the "download now" button on the front page.)
  • Install the package
Default options are fine. Possible option adjustments include:
Spell check support (just pick the appropriate language, like 'English (Canada)')
The only URI handler you need for AIE Jabber is xmpp
Making sure you are using the correct username and password will help with Pidgin setup.

This guide was made using Pidgin 2.10.17 for Windows but other versions should be similar.
