I hate them, but keep them as a back-up on my computer (I don't pay for the account, it's just an SN on my dad's account that I've had since forever. Also, AOL for OS-X isn't as intrusive as AOL for Windows is)
The AOL software in use in Australia (That's right folks, AUSTRALIA ONLINE [shudder]) seems to grab a hold of tcp/ip and say NO MORE!! THIS PROTOCOL IS MINE FROM NOW UNTIL THE END OF TIME!!
WHAT DO YOU MEEEEEAN YOU WANT TO INSTALL A BROADBAND MODEM!! NO! NOT FOR YOU!!
MWAAHAHAHAH
So yeah, I fucking love AOL, I mean, why wouldn't you? They censor the internet for the benefit of their moronic customers, they provide shitty proprietary software and they confuse people as to what the internet actually is.. FANTASTIC
