'AOL 9 Lite' Beta
Posted on June 18, 2004 by slushie (Original AOL-Files Staff)

In early beta stages right now is AOL's lightweight client, code-named Strauss. The welcome screen currently does not show up until you click a button for it, and then it says it is '7.0 Lite Welcome 1' of all things. This is a known issue... this really is AOL 9. The buddy list also sucks. Heh. It is buggy, yes, but it is lightweight. The installer is only about 12MB and it has many of the AOL 9 features without a lot of the bloat. It is worth checking out.Some Screen Shots:

Notice the new button format. They change color when you hover. It's actually pretty ugly.Download the Strauss Installer (Revision 61b) (Missing: slushie/Strauss.zip)Also, it may be possible to run the master tool in Strauss. For a discussion on this, visit the thread on this issue (Not available).

Hacker Smacker
Posted on January 30, 2004 by Slushie (Original AOL-Files Staff)

Even though I planned to release this tool inside the FDO IDE, I figure it could be more useful if release it now instead of waiting forever to (probably never) release it with a completed IDE. Anyway, enough chatter.

Questions/comments go in the thread. Enjoy.

Hooray!

Posted on November 21, 2003 by Cam0 (Original AOL-Files Staff)
As of November 19th, 2003, America Online's Instant Messenger Service will now allow you to sign on from multiple locations...yet on the same different screen name. This new feature will allow you to mobilize at home and use your service at another computer without disconnecting your other session.Try it out people, see if we can find some bugs =P

Network Document and Updates
Posted on November 11, 2003 by Rainbow (Original AOL-Files Staff)
One of my friends wrote this up, I decided to post it because it makes you wonder what the AOL network is really like, the AOL call centers of course. Check it out here.

P.S. More stuff has been added, everything has a temporary area except for the clients, be patient people!

AOL Instant Messenger Exploit
Posted on November 6, 2003 by Rainbow (Original AOL-Files Staff)
To begin, there has been an exploit recently launched with help of the oscSock tool, the exploit allows anyone to sign on to a screen name and send a malformed request forcing the user to send a GET request on any webserver. Read about how it's done here.
ndec 2.03f Released today
Posted on November 5, 2003 by Slushie (Original AOL-Files Staff)
Well Ras and I just finished this tool we call ndec. It is an AOL tool (that means it goes in C:\AOL\tool) and adds a menu to your AOL window. It acts as a screen name manager, or phish tank if you like. Here is a screen shot:

AOL-Files ndec ss.jpg

ndec was written purely in Assembler and FDO. It works natively with your AOL client and will allow you to load as many names as you want into your screen name list, virginize (new user reset) your database even in AOL 9, and will even decrypt the stored password for each name.

It does lots more, too. Check it out ;)To install, read the readme. (It's pretty simple.) The next release will include a self-installer, so be on the lookout.

A LOT of AOL/FDO information here
