Title: HackAIM	Also known as: Hack AIM
Type: Trojans	Severity scale: (53 / 100)

HackAIM pretends to be an installer for AIM Screen Name HACKER, an application that purportedly allows the user to login to his or her buddies AOL Instant Messenger accounts without entering passwords. However, HackAIM is also a trojan that secretly downloads from the Internet and installs some widely spread dangerous parasites to the compromised computer. Needless to say that Hack AIM does not even try to login to any AIM accounts.
