Publisher's Description
From IMO:
IMO is a Web based instant messaging service where you can instant message your friends on AIM, Google Talk, MSN, and Yahoo Messenger. It will also display buddy lists and your buddies' away messages and status, and keeps them separated through the various groups already set up through each of your accounts. You can link your messaging services together, so that you just need to log into one to access them all.

"Security and Privacy Concerns"
Version: Imo.im
Pros
Apparently stores your private Skype, and other account username/password information on the imo.im servers.
Cons
Apparently stores your private Skype, and other account username/password information on the imo.im servers.
Summary
I tried using this app behind a firewall and observed that Skype, AOL, Jabber, and other accounts wouldn't authenticate unless I allowed access to the imo.im servers -- strange behavior for an IM client. Their onscreen messages specifically say that these passwords are stored on the device, not external servers. So I read imo's privacy statement, which states explicitly that imo.im may store your Skype and other passwords on their servers!
"We receive and store any information you enter while you access or use the Service ... may include, but is not limited to: ... username, or password"
Concerned, I wrote to imo 's privacy email three times over a week and asked if they stored my usernames and passwords on their servers. I never received a response.
This was reason enough for concern, so I completely deleted imo and reset all my account passwords I entered into the imo app. There are serious security concerns about any app that collects and stores your username and password on its own servers. -
"Great but Yahoo messenger doesnt work!"
Version: Imo.im
Pros
I can use Yahoo messenger on my iphone, but IMO and eBuddy can use multiple Chat accounts eg MSN, Facebook chat, Skype chat, AIM, ICQ and more.
Cons
BUT Yahoo messenger doesnt work
In IMO I get;
Login failed! Account locked: Too many failed login attempts. Logging into the Yahoo website may fix this.
Well, logging into the website doesnt fix the problem
Any ideas why?
