AOL is the problem!!! AOL is bad for the PC. Who supplies your Internet connection, Your phone or cable company at 8mb? Switch to a true broadband service like our Road Runner or Verizon is. What your line provider offers. Its the PC that is tweaked not the service just to let you know. I had aol years ago when I first got mine and after learning how AOL takes over the PC and how you basically rely on AOL to have things working right witch hardly ever do I dropped it. I switched to Road Runner and set up my IE for the first time and have never looked back since. Find the tweaking forum here and ask Trogers how to help you tweak your pc as being in England things may be different than what I know. He is the man.
