AOL Client Clone (Re-Post)

This is a re-post of a project I posted a few months ago. I invite all the qualified bidders that bidded last time to bid again. Do not bother on bidding without providing the demo application described below. Also, I DO NOT want an AIM clone, I want an AOL clone! Please do not bother bidding if you're going to use the AIM protocol. RE-POST: I have a network of older computers around the office. People around here like to use AOL to chat with buddies, read their email etc. The problem is, the older computers don't have, or barely have enough ram to run these new versions of AOL. We've been using version 2.5 but chat is no longer available on the older aol clients. Anyways, I need a simple AOL client clone that can do the following: -Signon -Read Email -Retreive Buddylist -Send/Receive IMs -Find/Join chatrooms *The project must emulate version AOL 5.0 or above to be accepted* Interested coders should provide a small demo application that will signon a designated screen name and send an instant message to another designated screen name. This is just to demonstrate your knowledge on the subject matter. All code for this project must be written in VB. I can provide an account for testing purposes if need be. Also, I will pay bonus for speedy work. SERIOUS inquiries only please. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Installation package that will install the software (in ready-to-run condition) on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased. ## Platform Windows XP, 9x ## Deadline information The faster the project can be completed, the more I will pay.
