so for a while, i somehow succesfully had this utterly useless bot blocked and it wouldn't send me msgs when i was logged into two diff. places at the same time. at some point over the the last couple of weeks, however, it started being able to send me msgs again. i think it was right around when aol so graciously automatically put their other useless bots in my buddy list w/o asking me. so now my question is, anyone know how to block aolsystemmsg from sending you its stupid "your account is logged in in multiple locations..." messages? its driving me crazy and i really don't care how many places im logged into. im not worried about someone else using my account i just want to stop being bugged by this piece of crap...its driving me nuts :x

thanks,
ben

aolsystemmsg is un-blockable. I tried it, and still got the messages :P

Use Jabber instead ;)

Why does everybody say "Use Jabber instead"? You can only use Jabber with other users within that same Jabber network.

That's blatantly incorrect. Thank's for playing, but FAIL.

Edit: Okay, that was a little mean.

Jabber servers have server-to-server (s2s) capabilities. Almost all except internal and gtalk have this enabled. My server at weks.net can talk to somerandomnetwork.org on a completely separate server, with no previous interaction.

And with Jabber you can also use gateways so you can add contacts from just about any protocol to your list

I use jaim.at… it has almost EVERY protocol gateway. So if I wanted to, I could talk to AIM, Yahoo, MSN, IRC, ICQ, etc. people from it :D

Apparently we forgot the main question: we want to make that stupid AOL bot shut up.
So, will using a such service transport from a Jabber account do that ? And prevent aolsystemmsg from spaming us with his messages every time one is inadverently disconnected... or when one simply turns on a VPN...

Dammit if I don't find a solution I'm just gonna close my AIM account... How stupid can they be ? Making a bot imaging it will help their users when actually all it does is make them lose clients... anyways... everyone knows that "aolsystemmsg" is in reality a psychopath killer: http://www.ubersite.com/m/57443
