wtf is punting? if you mean spamming just use the aim catcher.

If you mean getting booted, just change your sn and dont tell it to ppl ;)

Depending on the methods used to "punt" (like IM flooding) just disable IMs. Its common sense... if someone keeps sending you *00000 IMs until your program crashes, ignore them or shut off IMs.

...or use another program other than AIM, thus hopefully avoiding these pre-fab attack programs.

I personally avoid anything with an AOL brand like the plague.

I also find it funny that punting/booting has been so popular for so long. I remember this being popular back in AOL *.* days... whats that, like *2-*5 years ago? I guess some things never change.
