Back in ancient times, we used to ban *!*@*.aol.com from IRC channels and servers to cut down on visitors from the Army Of Lamers.

"Back in ancient times"

Back in the day, AOL was imbedded in Windows (still?). I used it to go online to order another ISP.

I do remember that AOL used to ban certain (many) links. Because they didn't advertise with AOL?

And it was a devil deleting AOL.

And they had their own browser? And certain modems only worked with AOL?Never a good experience with AOL. Course that was when? Mid nineties?
