I've been an AOL user for 10 years. I hate 'em! But, I haven't found another ISP that affords me the out-of-town access that AOL does. Finding an access number is usually a cinch wherever I go, plus, "AOL Anywhere" is accessible from anywhere via any ISP, so, if I'm on someone else's computer who has another ISP, I can always log in to my account. Their AOL communitcator software allows me to keep up with my mail, etc, without signing onto my account at work (keeping my wife and kids from using it), through our server.

Also, my daughter uses our account while she's away at school so she doesn't have to bear the expense of another ISP. Only one person can be signed onto the account at one time, but, it hasn't been an issue in all the time she's been at school.

Like I said, I hate it. Since 9.0 Optimized with "SPAM BLOCKER," I've gotten more gosh darned spam than ever.

Believe me, if I could find an ISP with as much mobility as AOL, I'd be on it like white on rice. But, until then, I'm stuck.
