I have been playing with it for about a half an hour and I am having the opposite experience. Accessing the net is unbearably slow...I have dsl service and can't imagine this is why but it's the only explanation I can come up with. I had heard that there was to be an automatice software feature that reads your connection speed which isn't mentioned in the features section of 5.0....maybe this is not available yet. Still MUCH slower than 4.0 has ever been

AOL 5.0 running on my desktop with a 56K modem and WIN98 is a super Blazer. Folks, it smokes.

With the new features of v5.0, I am happy to see AOL is not that asleep. I guess they offer IE 5.0 with AOL 5.0 Can somebody verify?

Thanks
