Don't give a crap about AOL anymore, I quit them after the BS just like this kept coming and they wouldn't listen to my entreaties to quit it.

Read somewhere that AOL membership is down by over 2.5 million in the past couple of years, hope it drops to zero.

AOL= America Oughta be Liberal
A**holes OnLine

But thanks for the warning anyway!

Cheers!

Unfortunately, AOL fits a specific set of customers very well (other than the liberal crowd) and that is those who either are internet illiterate, inexperienced, afraid of "Going it on their own", too lazy to figure out how to do the 'net without having their hand held (and mailbox spammed). I have a friend who hates AOL, but at $2 per month for unlimited AOL "service" (his work is somehow affiliated with AOL....all employees get this amazing rate), he cannot justify $20-40 per month for any other service available to him and his family.

And yes, AOL is blazingly liberal. Unfortunately, many computer/technology related companies are.....

AOL is the sewer of the 'net. I am certain that someone on this board is going to flame me for ranting on AOL - but I hold to my statement.

Ah, if only I could get Xena's Mom on board with you . . . she screams when she can't see her Buddy List (usually because it's obscured by the 2000 other windows AOL opens), but to the best of our collective family knowledge has never used it. That kind of AOL user devotion is monolithic.
