 <description>&lt;h3&gt;What is an AIM Bot?&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An AIM Bot is a screen name that can respond automatically to the IMs it receives. It is capable of maintaining high volume IM conversations with multiple users simultaneously, but can not initiate IM conversations without special permission. With the AIM Bots program, it&#039;s easy to turn any screen name into a bot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Compared to regular screen names, AIM Bots have special powers. AIM Bots are not subject to normal rate limits, but are prevented from initiating IM conversations. AIM Bots can&#039;t be warned, and can appear online to up to 10,000 buddies at once.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://dev.aol.com/aim/bots&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
