sure hope you don't run into any probs and have to uninstall/reinstall!!

me too...aol really surprised me letting me stay online for that long without one of thier famous bump-offs. Didn't use cable download and zip disk transfer. Norton is using something called a Vbox to download with (maybe a temp folder of some kind) and I wasn't sure I would be able to tranfer everything that was needed. There probably was an option or info somewhere telling me but I missed it.

i'll bet your friends are very happy right about now, huh?

LOL...they think I am Einstein. :-)

so was it aol5.0 that was causing probs all along?

Windows me has some shutdown issues of it's own. You think $Bill wants you to cut him off? Not! Aol 5 has some issues with being unable to connect on the first try with Me and some modems that currently (as far as I could find out) can not be fixed. Aol 6 does not have this problem. I was hesitant to go with 6.0 after Langa-letter said he was coming out with info about his tests of MSN Explorer and aol 6.0.

Here's the article:

I wouldn't want it for myself but my friends wanted aol...so they got it. Manually fixing some of the security issues would be nice if I could find specific instructions. Bottom line...stay with your 4.0

tc :-)
