and yes, i cannot stand aol. reasons: i pay $5.95 for my isp (dialup), but i always get a 50.6k connection, and its very, very dependable. aol, on the other hand, asks $21.95 a month . . . for what? a bunch of stuff that i would never use. they have all of these buttons for shopping, movies, and on and on. and they force you to use their stupid little window (which has all of the shopping, etc. icons on it) instead of good ol' internet explorer. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: and i also think that their service is too user friendly, it just gets annoying :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
