Hello all,,,,I'm one of the few that still uses AOl (no laughing please),,the last few days its been lagging very very badly. No problems if I use Foxfire or even IE to search the web. Is anyone here still using AOL and are you having any problems with it taking much much longer to load web pages. I've tried a few fixes but nothings worked,,I know its not my PC as its happening on two laptops also,,,,thanks,,,I'm not computer savy at all. I learned the web using AOL and feel comfortable with it so don't want to change.

Call AOL on your rotary dial telephone and tell them to fix their problems.

Seriously, you should discard AOL. Learning the web is not that difficult. I'm sure there are some Dummies books on using the internet. It won't take you long to learn it.

Oh I do have firefox but use AOL for mail and have all my favs saved in it,,I've gotten feed back from some that are having the same problem and some that don't,,I tried a few things like clearing my cache and all that but it doen't help. Any way I hope it fixes itself,,like I said its doing this on my laptop also,,I guess its one of the draw backs to getting AOL for free.
