Guest Scorge Spike Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Nildram, Pipex and Zen - the only three companies who I've haven't had people bitching about at me, so either of those. Pipex if you're on a budget I reckon....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qzdiablo Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 aol's software is so big and stupid it slows my computer up when i run itand you have to run its browser if you want to browse the internet at all, you can't just connect to the internet and then use ie6and there's this moronic "aol today!" page which has all this content i don't want to read on it, which the browser won't let me close whenever i'm online Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattJimF Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 i never use the aol browser, always just had it in the background. Now that i have my wirless modem and router i only sign on to aol to check my email. and 2 meg connection for 35 quid ain't bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historicrocker Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 More a case of what's right with AOL. Unlimited download rates and for quite a small price. If I were to point out it's bad points, however, I would have some difficulty. It's very flexible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historicrocker Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 and then use ie6Why would you want to do that? ie6 is very unsafe, unlike a better browser like Mozilla Firefox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qzdiablo Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 i can't use any third party browser unless i'm using the aol one at the same timeand having it "in the background" seeing how it still uses my computer's resourcesi tried doing what charity case said (at least i think i did)i got the little icon in the system tray, it was green and it said "connection enabled" when i hovered the mouse over ithowever:i still couldn't browse the internet without signing on to aol through their browserand clicking the aol desktop icon to launch the aol software caused the full browser program to load up rather than just the system tray icon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
