The why does it communicate with Oscar.aol.com<http://Oscar.aol.com> on SSL? Port 443?
Isn't that misleading?

I looked all around, and there was a support article on Apple’s website which is now gone, so I am hoping someone here can answer it.
iChat used to have an encryption mechanism, however, since upgrading to Lion it is gone. I did however notice SSL on port 443 is used for the Oscar aim server…
Can anyone on here confirm or deny that traffic is being encrypted between chats? Or is it subject to network sniffing?
Thanks,
Mike
