Grant,
AOL's browser goes through their proxy system which changes the source IP for every
single call to the server. So, to use it, you have to check "Ignore source address in
security check". It is better to have them use another browser on the AOL connection
as Mozilla/IE don't rotate addresses. Checking that block leaves a hole for hijacking
sessions as the server no longer checks to see where the request is coming from. And
not just from AOL, but from all of your connections.
