    1. Re: [AOL-RW] AOL's Free but not DIAL UP

My two grandchildren have their own screen names on my AOL account and they use the AOL browser to use AOL features relating to school work and other sites for games and such. Will they still be able to use it on the 9.95 pricing plan? Lloyd ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Yes, your two grandchildren under their own screen names, and your screen name too, can access all of AOL's features, including the browser, under the 9.95 pricing plan. There will be 7 screen names that you can have on your account. While on AOL, one can bypass AOL's browser and click on the blue "e" icon to get the IE (Internet Explorer) browser direct. I prefer using the IE browser direct. Only one screen name of the seven can be on dial up access at a time. If using cable/DSL or other non-AOL access, all seven screen names of an account can use AOL at the same time. If one screen name is "dial up" to AOL and the other six are using a non-AOL connection, then all seven screen names of an account can be on at the same time PROVIDED only one is using the dial up access. For example, I access AOL with broadband, and my son uses a screen name from my account. When my son was on dial up, he and I could both be on at the same time (under different screen names, of course). Off the subject a bit, but fun to know: To really get people confused, one can be on AOL's chat with one screen name, and on AIM with another screen name, and chat with another person and claim that one can be aware of the other chatter.
