theprod98 Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 my school banned aol 6.0 .. they said it messes with all the netowrk settings and can cause it to crash...AOL is getting close to sucking just as much as microsoft..all they try to do is monopolize everything------------------ "There is no guest list tonight" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ooana Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 AOL itself has sucked for a loooooooooooong time. I highly recommend to everyone using it to get off. Get a new provider and just use AIM.-Oo------------------"When the soul wishes to experience something, she throws an image of the experience out before her, and enters into her own image."---"You have wings!

cathyo Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Move on!!AOL is just a stepping stone for the beginning of your computer career. Everyone leaves it after a while.I never had it but I've always heard bad things about it. I do use AIM though.------------------ A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to it's old dimensions.~*~*~Don't use time or words carelessly, neither can be retrieved.~*~*~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichi_gami Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 hmmm, a stepping stone, eh? Been online since 1985 (yup, 8 years old) with MCI Mail. Been through the locals, been through the free school connection, got the work freebie, have netzero; AOL is the one I went with and stuck with when I was traveling quite a bit. It has its annoyances, and its conveniences as with any provider, so it balances out. So I am still with it. This is 14 years later, and after having worked in tech for several years at different levels. So it is not neccessarily a stepping stone for everyone, sometimes just the least of evils. Esp. when it is sometimes the only local dial-up!Meantime, I have stuck with the last stable release of AOL, v4.0. I have a copy of 3.0, if anyone wants it, though!
