Re: AIM 0day DoS

It affects all of AOL's versions of AIM for Win32.  It also affects all
versions of Netscape's AIM, with the exception of the AIM program
included with Netscape 6.1.

I've tried to test with AIM v2.0N (AIM95) with no results.  It came with
Netscape 4.6x, I believe.

AOL fixed the problem at server level now.

The test was conducted before AOL put on their server side restrictions.
AIM v2.0N (AIM95) that came with Netscape Communicator 4.6x didn't crash.  I
don't believe all AIM clients in the past are affected by this.
