AOL is an all in one hobbled browser with built in access to AOL's proprietary
databases through a control strip and menus. Most of the databases are based on
commercial agreements with corporations you can access through the Web anyway. It is
designed to be easier to set up for non technical types. It is around $24 a month
also.
My main problem with it is how slow the surfing is compared to a "real" browser and
ISP.

< I must admit that I don't really know what AOL is even though I keep
getting the cd's through the post...I have five IP accounts just setup
with TCP/IP and Remote Access......what does AOL the application do?
