You did create the filter as an outbound filter, not a
Remote Access filter, right?

I've heard that AOL Instant Messenger is pretty hard to
block, and that you pretty much have to block all ports
outbound to any of AOL's servers.

Somewhere not too long ago, I remember someone posting
a list of AOL servers either to this list or to the
Forum.  You might want to search the archives of this
list and search the Forum to see if you can find it.
