Is Flixster a Big Fat Spammer?
Using AOL as an example, when you first sign up for Flixster using an AOL email address, after you select a username and password, the very next screen prompts you for your AOL password!  If you use a Gmail address, you can get the same screen, only with the Gmail logo. Same for Hotmail and Yahoo.
Once you give them your password, they grab everyone’s email addresses from your AOL, Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail address book, and spam them with the invitation. In your name using your email address.
