OT <<I have heard you can get some type of account from aol where they will let you access from the internet.>>

That's what I use. Its called BYOA. Bring your own access.

Easiest thing to do is install one of AOL's innumerable free diskettes, and set up, sign on as per usual, taking advantage of the free month. Then before the end of the month switch to BYOA by going to the members service area. Its 9.95/month instead of 19.95 for unlimited access.

You access it thereafter once you have signed on to your ISP. You fire up AOL same as you would if it was dialing in, only once you enter your password it connects through your existing connection, rather than by a new dialup.

Its actually a lot more convenient, since you don't have to get offf one connect and onto another.

To all,
There are 2 LOR message boards on AOL. The one that Readware posts on can only be accessed by AOL members. The other board can be accessed free of charge by anyone, however you must first register, select a login ID and have a PIN assigned by AOL. I want to emphasize that these 2 message boards are entirely different and do not share posts.
