Hi Judy :) I have 9.0 SE Edition. Ever since AOL changed to web welcome screen I have had a problem w/it continually. Every so often I sign on and the old welcome screen comes up. I would not mind that but when it does cannot get on the web, and no letters w/embedded images will fill. That I definitely do not like. Also at times the web welcome screen comes up w/no filling ability. A month or two ago I contacted AOL techs. Had no clue why the old one would come up. Thus have tried to analyze it on my own. This is what I believe. The web welcome screen has a lot of advertising on it. I have come to believe that when one ad (especially the big moving ones) will not complete filling the old screen comes up. Also I believe that is same problem w/the non filling web screen. Can do my mail box thing but again no letters w/embedded images will fill. I also have noticed that when the old one comes up the Adv on my address book not filled. I have two computers. One big one and one 6/month old quality lap top. Does same thing on both. My lap top just does it faster. LOL I also have noticed that if I sign on when AOL Spyware protection is working the old screen comes up. Also AOL is sending an occasional Pop Up. That always brings up the old screen. When the old one comes up or the new one non filling one comes up I have learned to X out AOL and bring it up again. That almost always takes care of the problem. When I change screen names sometimes old and sometime new. The bottom line is that I blame AOL Adv on the web screen. Jeannie :) In a message dated 7/27/2008 10:52:30 A.M.

Since the forced download to 9.1 ver 4334.34, AND on my Master Screen Name ONLY, AOL changes the Welcome Screen ONCE a day. However!!- I can switch screen name to any others, immediately switch BACK to the Master Screen Name, and magically the OLD Welcome Screen returns. I swear - LOL. I'll try to grab a print screen for the "new" Welcome Screen the next time it happens. The new one has at top-left, 3 buttons-- Mail Center is first. Clicking Mail Center gives ANOTHER Window and then you can click to read new mail. Both windows have a bunch of other stuff, of course. On the new Welcome, there is NO box-outline around the News area. Instead it has < or > fancy buttons to scroll through the "news" screens. By comparison, the OLD Welcome has a box-outline around the News area, then says 1/6 (screens) and the black < then double-vertical lines then > to scroll to each screen. On the OLD screen, top-right, it has 4 graphics for Mail, Weather, AOL Radio, Video. On the NEW screen, top-right, it has a blank area with a link for Change Location (or some such wording)-- I guess for your home town so you can see the weather. That's about all I remember of the New one. What's weird is, I've made NO change to my choice of Welcome Screen. And, it returns immediately to the OLD screen as soon as I switch to any other name, then switch back. Anyone else? By the way, this NEW Welcome screen stinks, IMO.

I'm not sure what the "web welcome screen " looks like. I'll try to do a Print Screen of the NEW screen I see and maybe someone here will let me send it privately in an email. That'll be the only way to get an ID of what it is. Anyway, it's got to be AOL. Thanks for confirming that I'm not nuts--LOL Judy
