I have to chime in here too and agree. AO-Hell is has a lot of 
international access points. I have traveled to:

Australia and New Zealand

http://members.nbci.com/mjfriese/adventure/index.html

and Italy and France

http://mike.friese.com/pilgrimage/index.html

And all these web pages were uploaded from their respective countries 
with -argh- AOL.

I keep TWO AOL 3 hour for $5 accounts open for this and another purpose 
that should be of interest with people with low-end Macs: You can set up 
your friends with "free" (to them) email using one of your old dinosaur 
Macs. AOL 2.7 will run on Mac Pluses and you can easily run 3.0 on all 
the others.

You set them up with flash sessions (with passords enabled ONLY for the 
flash sessions.) Every time they send or fetch their email, it only takes 
a two minute connect so a single AOL account can be shared with 5 users 
and not go over the 3 hour monthly limit. And when you are traveling 
internationally, you can use it to get on the internet!
