Wow, that's a little weird. He probably just set up the servers wrong. It can't be
a problem with AOL, as I'm using it.

Yeah, that's a problem. You have to set up the servers by hand.

There's nothing wrong with using AOL to get online. I just minimize it and go ahead
with Mozilla. Who do you think owns Road Runner that you just happen to be using?

I'm using Mozilla (not a Microsoft product). It's a server problem, and
it's only been occuring recently. I think KAH pointed this out the
