I'm glad to hear that someone else is complaining about AOL slowness! I have been complaining about Vista since I got it two years ago, and it gets worse everyday. Lately at least once and sometimes two and three times a session, the thing freezes up and that annoying donut starts spinning and the message "AOL not responding" ---- I press suggestion to Log Off and then it goes through reinstalling AOL. Sometimes that works and sometimes I'm really logged off. Misery loves company...........
