If you add someone to your AIM list, they don't find out right?

What's your AIM name, we'll do a test for you... see if you can tell who adds you...

I've never heard of this with AIM. I can't find it anywhere in options either.

You can count MSN Messenger and Windows Messenger, too.

But yeah, I thought it was kinda freaky to find that anybody could add me to their AIM list without my approval. So I don't use it anymore. Pretty big privacy flaw, imo.

Not only do they find out, but they get your email address, your home address, and your cell phone number... you stalker. :D

Really though, no info is sent. You're in the clear.
