  • Application Software

AOHell was a Windows application used to simplify computer hacking using AOL. It contained a very early use of the term phishing. The program was created by a teenager using the pseudonym Da Chronic, who said the motivation was anger that child abuse occurred on AOL without being stopped by AOL administrators.
