I have dumped AOL. After many years of putting up with poor service and inexcusable mistakes including confiscating my email they finally did something I could not forgive them for.
AOL has a rule in the fine print that says that we must NOT put a web link into any email!! Yep - it's there in the fine print. Take a look. 
Well I had our website ( www.amrt.net ) on the bottom of my email and someone ratted me out - saying they found the amrt.net website "offensive" - this is the site for dogs and cats in animal shelters - not a porn site.
So AOL went in and changed my password. Oh yes they sent me an email explaining why they had changed my password. But I never got that email - because they had changed my password. And I never got the email that told me a litter of puppies needed out of the Downey shelter NOW. And thanks to AOL those puppies died that night. And I was on the phone for over an hour trying to get my email back.
So I called Earthlink and asked them if they had such a stupid rule and they assured me they did not.
And I dumped AOL - and I suggest those of you who feel the above is outrageous might consider doing the same.

Well that just shows to all you AOL users, they indeed suck. I think there are even websites like IHATEAOL.com and stuff, not sure if that link works though.

Weird and sad too...


Anyway it does baffle me that in this country people are willing to pay for aol unlimited dialup when they could get cheapy midband or even cheapy broadband for the same price. I think parents watch the ads on the tv and go "oh man, I have to get that for my kids, it's so safe". If the weirdo pervy net freaks hang out in any one place, it's AOL

Speaking of AOL killing animals, they also took over nullsofts winamp and plan to kill the llama. AOL sucks.
