I've only used AOL on 2 occasions in 4 years and both times their installation software buggered my machine. The customer services were a joke, they charged me after I cancelled with them and it took 4 months to get it back. They refused to believe I didn't have a firewall when I once had a connection problem and generally did all they could to lose me as a customer.

Let's be fair Russ, when all's said and done they were doing you a big favour here by persuading you to use a proper ISP, so that was actually GOOD customer service.

I don't but one of my pet hates is thier crud that gets installed on your system.

Can you still access any of the content if you don't use their excuse of a browser?

Does it work for dial-up customers?

I agree with them all, the only good AOL is a dead AOL. (sorry for saying that name twice :spit:)
