Jeez... too much work and too nice view from the window took my attention
when I wrote it...

of course I meant AOL Instant Messenger :-\

Subject: What is AIM Adware? (Re: All Advantage Spyware)


Hi all,

I forgot to mention another funny string in advert.dll - it has words "AIM
Adware" in it - all that comes to my mind is Adobe Instant Messager... I
never used it (stick to ICQ for last 3 years and IRC for dunno how long),
but maybe it has somethingf in common with All Advantage?
