Hi all here is my problem. My computer has aol on it and I want it still on there but I don't want it to keep popping up. I went into msconfig and unchecked it in the start up but it still keeps coming back. How do I prevent it from coming up? Any one know?? Please lemme know. Thanks

one way obiously is to delete aol. i know you don't want to so another way is to download .exe password software. By doing this you are encripting the .exe file so instead of it popping up all the time it will request a password and simply esc that once or twice and it usually wont bother you again. when you want to access aol just simply click on it and enter you password
