MemberI used to have this link to a website… It was to set other people’s away messages. You went to the site and typed in what you wanted the away message to say, and then it came up with a bogus link for you. You’d send to someone in an IM or put it in your profile as, “SubProfile: Click to Continue”, and when they clicked the link, it set whoever clicked it’s away message to what you chose, like “I’M DUMB!” or something. But I lost the link! I’ve tried googling, but all I get is funny away messages or programs for away message rotation. Can anyone help me? 😮

MemberThat’s hilarious. I’m going to try that on my friends right now.

MemberBut you should put the mesage in hex so they don’t know what the away mesage will be until they click it.
aim:goaway?message=%49%20%64%69%64%6E%27%74%20%6B%6E%6F%77%20%77%68%61%74%20%74%68%69%73%20%73%61%69%64%20%77%68%65%6E%20%49%20%63%6c%69%63%6B%65%64%20%69%74September 10, 2004 at 8:15 pm #38800bigcfk
Member*mouses over link*
*looks at status bar*
“I didn’t know what this said when I clicked it”
Well, I did.September 11, 2004 at 3:11 am #38797Ithaca1937
MemberYes you’re browser automatically converts it but if you send it as a link threw AIM it leaves it as the HEX when you place you mouse pointer over the link in the AIM window.

MemberHow do you disguise the link as something else? So instead of it saying the long thing it would say like click here or something.

did you miss the part about “Im an asshole to my friends and I deserve to burn in hell.” the whole thing is stupid to do, its pointless. if you want to know how to “disguise the link” do a 15-second search on google for html help.

MemberIthaca1937, how do you transfer words like that into hex; do you have a program that does it, or do you have all the characters for hex memorized?

Enter the text you want, and hit ‘Encode’, then copy the text from the ‘Hex’ field.
