Zune web browsing?!

Marshillboy · 06-19-2008, 07:25 PM

So, long story short I was packet sniffing my AIM client, trying to disassemble the login progress for creating my own AIM bot. In the process, I found a particularly delicious packet header I found bounced back to the AIM client...

Code:

GET /redirects/inclient/AIM_UAC_v2.adp?magic=93236874&width=120&height=90&sn=Slayerexpert HTTP/1.1..Accept: */*..Accept-Language: en-us..UA-CPU: x86..Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate..User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; AIM Browser 1.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Zune 2.0; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; Zune 2.5; InfoPath.2)..Host: www.aim.com..Connection: Keep-Alive..Cookie: rsi_ct=2008_6_19:9; RSP_DAEMON=650b7f336708bcdc184ee7

Wait, what? Take a closer look at this part:

Code:

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; AIM Browser 1.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Zune 2.0; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; Zune 2.5; InfoPath.2)

What the heck is Zune 2.0 and Zune 2.5 doing embedded in their user agent compatability list?

Any thoughts?

It might be something to do with the reason msn messenger can now display what the zmp is playing. Zune just attaches its user agent to messengers or something like that

Doesn't AIM use IE as an engine?

I did the useragent for my IE and got:

User agent info: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.0.04506; Zune 2.5; .NET CLR 3.5.21022)

I'm guessing it's for things like viewing the marketplace,since that uses IE as an engine for the marketplace and such.
