Another result of the morphing exploit. Hax0rs were able to sign onto
Guest, New User, and Get Local. While signed on they could go to chat
rooms and there was no way for them to be bumped. It was called cloaking
because it did exactly that. No AOL employee could bump people signed
onto these screen names. They couldn't be tracked either.
