aol is horrible in my opinion because its always bogged down, half the time, you cant even get onto the internet, its bull, they have more users than they know what to do with. the last few updates (7.0, 8.0, and 9.0) have all been absolutly pointless, theyve changed the backround and added a few more options, in my opinion 9.0 should be 7.2. and even if you get online, theres no promises on wether or not you can stay on, because if they get too many people trying to log on at once, theyll start kicking people off. its horrible, and the only reason i can think of that people use it (myself included) is because all their friends use it just the same.

Mozilla, IE with the Google toolbar, and I just got Firefox.

Crazidude, I dont recommend AOL. I stopped using after they made version 4.0. But, I liked AOL's e-mail. Its up to you.

Time Warner (or whoever has the rights to AOL) spent millions, possibly billions on advertising AOL which is why AOL is this big.

and even better you can see if its a disguised link to something you'd rather not click

heh ic... I was never planning to use AOL. I was just curious about how bad it is. My friend said that it was super fast when he was on dial up.

I used like AOL because they sent me those free diskettes and I could use em to store stuff. But now they give stupid cds which I can't do anything with.

There are no incomplete versions of Opera anymore. They are using an banner in the upper right corner beside the menu. It isn't annoying at all, actually. If you buy/register it the banner is removed, and you get access to support, I think.
Download at http://www.opera.com/

Great features of Opera:
Pop-up block that works
Download manager
Mouse gestures (so that you don't have to move the mouse up to the menu for the most used buttons. I love this!)
Built in e-mail program utilizing data base technology.

This makes no sense... what has "being around a big city" got to do with finding a decent web browser?

Uhm - the Internet is "virtually" everywhere ----
