Look at a lot of the ICQ exploits too, they are a good starting ground
on how NOT to structure a IM service. Also AIMs direct connect feature
while you are sending files and such shows your IP address on both
ends by using netstat (not really an exploit but I would consider it a
vunlrebility), but always rember there is no patch for human
stupidity, soo that bug is always exploitable
