If I'm recalling properly, in the first movie the whole reason everyone except Ripley dies is because of the automaton with override instructions to bring home the alien specimen intact. Furthermore, it would seem that they were already thinking of warlike purposes for any such entity they might be able to get their hands on.
The ubiquitous "Evil" Corporation always seemed to know more than what they let on (even more than the viewers know). The Android on Ripley's ship obviously had orders.
That's just with the original movie I got that feeling.
Then you add in all of the stuff filmed or written since, as the "Alien Universe" merged with the "Predator Universe" (yeah, I know lots of you hated that, and the movies that stemmed from it, but it goes back a long long ways to comic books, and the movies were indeed Crap-o-la) we see the early incarnation of The Company. If you consider that all of this is so called "canon" then the Company that Ripley worked for did indeed know about the aliens.
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.
