Hi All,

Does anyone know of a freely available API for java that exposes calls to common AOL instant messenger tasks? Specifically, I am interested in running a threaded client app as a bot, so I need the ability to log in as well as receive messages.

If there are no available APIs for this, any direction in terms of using the TOC protocol with sockets would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Adam Rice
