The Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging proxy is a multi-
platform proxy that allows you to have private conversations
using the AIM client of your choice. It provides encryption,
which prevents someone who intercepts your instant
messages from reading them, authentication, which ensures
that the correspondent is who you think it is, and perfect
forward secrecy, which ensures that no previous
conversation is compromised if you lose control of your
private keys.
