New in AIM 5.2.3255
Encrypted IM
Now you can send and receive encrypted IMs! AIM 5.2 introduces the ability for AIM members to send and receive end-to-end encrypted messages - IM, Chat and File Transfer - allowing for message privacy and member identification. Messages are encrypted and decrypted using industry-standard encryption methods - messages sent between AIM members can be digitally encrypted and signed. For more information on using encryption with AIM, click here.
Send IMs to Mobile Phones (Updated!)
Sending IMs to mobile phones just got easier. Now you can create nicknames for your Buddies' mobile numbers, making it easy to find them at a glance. Just enter an easy-to-remember nickname, when you add a mobile phone number to your buddy list.
Note: IM Forwarding and IMs to Mobile phones is available only in the United States. Mobile phones must support text messaging, and you may be charged by your mobile carrier to receive messages on your phone. Please check with your mobile carrier for details.

It won't be. It uses "industry-standard encryption methods - messages sent between AIM members can be digitally encrypted and signed". I presume that means RSA, which is so secure because of a simple fact: huge integers are hard to factor. I know that sounds stupid, but in order to crack their encryption, youd have to factor their public key which could take thousands to millions of years. (Even if you had every computer in the world working on it using some kind of distributed processing, you'd not succeed unless you got really lucky.)Plasma2002b wrote:wonder how long til that encryption meathod gets cracked

From what I learned yesterday the new AIM will work with DeadAIM. (I learned it from there forums) so I going to guess that anything that work with AIM 5.1 will work with this one 2.
