Hi,

A mate has asked me to help him install AOL software on his new vista laptop later on this week, I've got a funny feeling he has already had a go and run into problems. Has anyone had any experience of installing AOL on vista? I've have looked around and I'm finding a lot of people with issues and fixes.

Here's a couple I've found:
1. Stop with AOL 9.0 VR version and not go to 9.1 (problems with tool bar missing or disappearing) + there has been some mention of AOL 10 but I can't find it.
2. TCP Stack - disable TCP auto-tuning
3. `User Account Control enabled' + copy old version of AolPhx file from non-vista ready version of AOL and overwrite new one.

Any help on this matter would be gratefully received, as I don't really want to spend hours and hours on the phone to AOL support installing it.

TIA
