Has anyone seen anyone saying "! agent" around? Or have any idea what this may be controlling?
I had someone who was by appearance a total newb, only 4 days old, and 0 profile customization sitting in our store saying this.
! agent
!agent
! agent
He wouldn't answer me when I asked, and then left.
Shortly before he said this I seen this message out of the blue:
Can't move object to { 229.002, 80.6469, 24.5665 } in region because the parcel is full.

This got me thinking CopyBot. Am I just being paranoid?
Anyone?

Thanks,
Raven

It could be someting based off libSL or just a confused (stoned?) newbie, although I doubt it's a copier of any sort. What it was, is anybody's guess.

there are a number of personal scanners, some freebies which can scan for object or avatars by name. at least one listens for the text !agent from its owner to change its scan mode from looking for Objects to looking for Avatars (Agents is teh technical word for an av)

likely you saw someone playing with a scanner of some sort.

I assume this guy tried to use the "agent scanner" of the widespread multitool. The correct command would have been

!agents

I see he was close but not close enough
