Sadly this is the state of the retail environment. Too may no-nothing trying to sell stuff that requires a little knowledge. Try walking into you local B&Q, ask a slightly complicated question or ask for something not on the shelves. The replies will make anyone who remembers proper hardware shops fall to their knees and weep.

From what I remember AOL are different than other ISP's in that they use their own mail and connection protocols. I believe you have to install the latest version of AOL software too before you can connect unlike other ISP's that dont need any special software.

Actually the trick is not to install any AOL specific software and just connect using your normal web browser.

Well close, the trick is to uninstall the pre-installed AOL software, do a reg cleaning then do a search, get something like filescrubber and use it to delete the folder that is hiding somewhere, then do another eg cleaning...come back in two months to make sure that the AOL folder has no reappeared...the same holds true for quicktime [}:)]
Who said any AOL software was pre installed? But you are right that lil old folder that hides itself away does need deleting. When you return as you suggest to make sure the folder has not reappeared...... Spookily you will have to go through the same process again!!!!! AOL don't ya just love em![y][y][y]
