Learn to live with it. DCOM's one of those MS "mistakes". You can download and install "Decombobulator" (search Google- it's free)which supposedly disables DCOM, but you'll more than likely still get the errors. They don't mean anything.
i would look in the task manager and see if you see "aim" running, in "processes".. also, i would use regedit and look to see if there is a regkey for "aim" in hkey_local machine/software/microsoft/windows/current version/run, (intended to cause "aim" to run at startup), and delete it, if there is one.. (i do not mean to delete "run"!) also, go to start/all programs/startup, and see if "aim" is running from there.. if there is an entry there for "aim", delete it..
you could try using grc's "decombobulator".. also, i would look at your firewall rules and, if you see "aim" in the firewall's rules, i would delete the entry..
