AIMers were able to be punted offline with ease. The trick was simple enough. Send the AIM victim an Instant Message with the message &.#770;. The user was immediately punted from AIM and often even had to restart. The string &.#771; turned their screen fuzzy.

The release of AIM 4.1? fixed this punt method.
