Research: Online Service Provider Assessment Project: Methodology: Instant Messaging
If there is an instant messaging facility, check which access levels permit use of
instant messaging by testing instant messages within the online service and external to
the online service. For all of these instant message types that function, determine
which words from category G, category H, category I, and category J word lists, from
Appendix D: Word Lists, are filtered in the instant
messages or result in notices of a violation for the various access levels and internal
versus external types.
Check also if external Instant Messaging applications will work on the service, such as
AOL Instant Messenger, available at
http://www.aol.com/aim, and Y
ahoo! Messenger, available at
http://messenger.yahoo.com.
