I remember hearing that AOL was receiving heat for utilizing proprietary
software, I believe it was called. Meaning once their program was installed,
other browers, like MS Explorer, would have difficulty working. AOL is also
quite good at burying files in your system, so not to be remove very easily.
You have to snoop and search for those little critters, as well as in your
Win.sys- Win.ini files, which can be removed through run> sysedit.

Good Luck,
Stephen P.
