If they can get in to your aim that means someone else can too, there is a back door they are using. Granted they own the rights to AIM so they can do what they wish, but if there is a back door they know about someone else does too.

From the moviephone bot:

[00:12:15] MovieFone: Other than your screen name, your zip code if you search for a movie & your history of interaction with the bot we have no other personal information that is directly related to you. Type more.



[00:13:05] MovieFone: The other information that we do have is just the plain text of questions or comments [what people type] and the different things that the bot has responded with. We use this information in an aggregated, anonymous form to make sure things are running smoothly. And we make sure that the folks at AIM know what people are asking for too. Type more.



[00:13:28] MovieFone: Since sometimes when you follow a link in a robot you will end up on an AOL or other outside site you may be interested in reading their Privacy Policy. You're smart for asking about privacy! Type M to get to the Main Menu!



So... it isn't even AOL that added these. It seems to me a company found the exploit and is now making money off of it.



Wouldn't be surprised if more of these show up.



Here's the other bot, looks to be almost the same:

This one keeps less information, though I'm wondering if it keeps track of what you shop for, and sells that info to companies to send spam to <screenname>@aol.com email addresses. IIRC, AIM screennames automatically get <screenname>@aol.com email addresses. At least mine did, then again I used AOL for a week while my cable was installed after I moved.

There is no backdoor ... the member lists are run server side, which they (the server) have control over. Your list is not read client side, hence why you can log in to your name on someone elses computer and have all your contacts show up.



Next time just say to yourself before you post, "Do I REALLY know what I'm talking about?"
