I had a friend who uses AOL.  he told me that someone he knew had bugged his 
AOL account so that his IMs were logged, his sites visited was logged, and 
all of his settings (favorites, buddy list, etc.) had been recorded.  i know 
that this is done by cracking and is probably some juvenile prank, but how 
could i protect myself against someone doing that?  i.e. is it a packet 
sniffer sniffing packets coming out of a specific ip address with specific 
headers, or is it some sort of spoofer that asks AOL for that information?  
and if so, how could i prevent an attack like that from succeeding?
