new aimbots

I use something similar for work to locate coworkers, their phone numbers, etc. It's quicker than opening up the search on a webpage.
 
i already deleted them. AOL System Msg told me that was unwise, but i did it anyway.

(they also added them to my gaim buddy list as well.)
 
THat's odd, I don't have this group in my BuddyList...maybe it doesn't work with Sidekick. Although, I added the name Moviefone and it's not appearing online...
 
I had the dumbest conversation ever with the MovieFone bot. I asked for starting times for "the new harry potter flick" and it said "Awesome: I f*ckin Shot That hasn't started yet." I then proceeded to curse at it to which it responded I needed some "Tyson protein". I couldn't make this up.
 
they appear in GAIM
i dont like aol forcing bots on my aim buddy list. its not to the sony-rootkit level, but still, i dont like the fact that they put it in without an option for yes or no. maybe removing the bots will cause you to lose the whole list or something.

AOL is getting desperate, im telling you.

edit: bigb10283's post made me try it:

There's nothing stupid about it. If you want to call it useless for you, go ahead. How are these (such as moviefone or yellowpages) a stupid idea ?

Because they invade my buddy list. I hate all programs that do something unexpected or unwanted. As far as I am concerned it's a virus.

if that's what spooner meant, then that's fine. That's what I was questioning.
