So I was connecting to AOL today because Trillian's good programmers Scott and Kevin kick ass at fixing the repeated and failed attempts of AOL to stop people from connecting to their servers via non-AIM clients...everything went well and five minutes later, I got this:

[14:27] AOL Instant Messenger: You have been disconnected from the AOL Instant Message Service (SM) for accessing the AOL network using unauthorized software. You can download a FREE, fully featured, and authorized client, here http://www.aol.com/aim/download2.html .

Now is that funny or what? It seems they know they can't keep up and it's just a matter of time before Trillian has an update. Workaround: you can just reconnect. Yeah it's repetitive but it works.
