I have a similar story, except for me it was Yahoo! Chat. Got a hold of VB, and started making chat bots, brute dictionary "tools", etc. I managed to produce a few that were fairly popular in the scene.
oh yeah I spent a fair amount of time on Yahoo!, mostly the game rooms
Yahoo! Pool was peak multiplayer gaming back in the day!
