do your self a favor and run @home without aol...it's a disease to your tcp/ip and will slow you down and in your case just plain not work.

If you go do a search @home has come out and said there is a problem keeping your connection when using AOL. Esp. with AOL 6 Plus it only slows U down something about there old out dated Tcp/IP stack that Steve CAss controls..

AOL YUK!!! *lol* it's a big pain in the butt.
It installs a AOL Adapter and a AOL Dail-up Adapter and messes with your TCP/IP, I never recomnd to anyone to have that junk in your NetWork if everything is working fine hey by all means if you want to keep it but darn it's the most common thing to cause you a problem.
And I would never sacrifice my computer system just for the joy of meeting girls *ROFLMAO*

I work for AT&T @home, yes, you will need to go back to AOL 5.0 for now. There is not any patch at this time.

the best patch for AOL is "add/remove prgrams"
