I use AOL 8 now, and while it has that pretty 'XP' look about it now, the old problems are still there....
Failure to log on half the time
Slow speeds (usually 42000kps)
Boots you as and when it feels like it
The only good point is the added anti pop-up feature which does actually work!!
Theres still a few bugs......and why dont us UK users get the extra features that USA users get?
Like the ability to boot idiots in chat?? that would be nice......
