Will be helpful to others. This article gains ground everyday. It amazes me how many people are still using AOL. I'm thinking the majority is dial-up users. Rick Sherman,

I have a friend who is house bound and only uses AOL Dial-up. Her PC crashed and had to be restored. I could not get over there quick enough to 'kidnap' the pc and take it to somewhere that has high speed so I thought I should be able to find an 800 number for AOL for her to use and install the software - ummm wrong. Oh, my fav thing to do with old AOL cd's - where I work we wallpapered the Telecom guy's office with them. Think staple guns and hundres of CD's. Best use of them ever!

I was about ready to give up on AOL. We just got a new computer for my 97 year-old great-grandmother. I don't know what she would have done without her e-mail and online news while we waited for AOL to repent of its evil ways and actually be helpful. You've made her month (and mine too)! --Kim Thank you so much! I was about ready to give up on AOL. We just got a new computer for my 97 year-old great-grandmother.

My parents are in a similar situation. Dialup where they are is even slow... Good luck with this and I hope it helps. Rick Sharron,

I know what you mean about living “in such a rural area”. My parents are in a similar situation. Dialup where they are is even slow… Good luck with this and I hope it helps.

Then I happened to run across an unprotected high speed router with my laptop and ran across you guide. I have gotten the file I need to transfer to their computer. So tomorrow we will find out if it works.
