  1. migrants

    Migrants who die or suffer when breaking our immigration laws are NOT OUR FAULT. If you rob a bank because you need money to feed yourself and you get shot and killed while robbing the bank and breaking the law, it is NOT the banks fault when you die. The unfortunate stupid father who drowned with his kid is nothing more than a stupid idiot who should not have been blessed with a child because he was too stupid to protect that child. The Dems are ******** murderers and their hate for Trump has made them stupid Anti-American lunatics. Take…

  3. Replace or Improve Desktop Gold

    I just got off the phone with Tech Support, and they had to uninstall and then reinstall your HORRIBLE Desktop Gold platform once again since it would freeze up and stop working after I was using it after a few hours every single time. What a waste of my time, and it costs AOL lots of money having their tech support team deal with the endless problems with the platform that its users encounter.

    Desktop Gold is hated by everyone, and is the worst platform that AOL has over had, yet you refuse to improve it, or better yet, replace…

  4. Hidden captions

    Whoever the fool was that thought that hidden captions on stories was a good idea needs a brain change. Put them back on the side of the picture as in the past. There would be enough room for the caption and the stupid ad with a little bit of planning.

  5. Why do you keep old mail on file that I have permanently deleted? As much as 4 or 5 days ago.

    If want to delete a bunch of mail at one time: go to "EDIT","SELECT ALL". All mail will be highlighted to be deleted.

  6. I hate that picture of the deformed leg that pops up over and over. It is sickening to see it once but 100x!?

    PLEASE REMOVE THAT STUPID PHOTO OF THE LEG WITH AN ELASTIC BAND AND MEDICAL WARNING. IT IS IN BAD TASTE AND ALSO RIDICULOUS BUT NOT IN A FUNNY WAY.It even popped up in the middle of the spam folder after removing my spam!

  9. go out of business

    Move your sorry lying *** to some other country and take the word America out of your name. You are America haters and have no idea what made this country what it is. Maybe if you move your sorry *** to some other country you will gain appreciation of what we have here. We are not perfect but we surely do not want to become what you jerks thinks is the future. You you brain dead *******.

  10. Get rid of ALL Advertising on the Email pages - reading - writing - and downloading!

    Get rid of ALL Advertising on the Email sidebars - when reading - writing - and downloading information! It is not only annoying; it is harmful - medically to anyone with seizures, epilepsy, or Migraines! First, it was the Target ads; now, it is the Progressive/Geico insurance ads and Money-making scams that not only pop up Once - they Continue to pop up repeatedly over and over again - EVEN when you have said the ad is not of interest; inappropriate; or seen too many times!

    I have opted out. I have complained to the FCC. I have a medical…

  11. move the cursor automatically to a pop up dialog box

    when a dialog box pops up the cursor used to move automatically to the box. Now it has to be moved manually. How can I set it to move automatically again?

  13. Store emails on our PC rather than on AOl Desktop Gold.

    AOL tech support reinstalled AOL desktop gold on my computer. All of the emails that I had saved under the folder "save on my PC" from August 2017 to present were not there. I have contacted tech multiple time since discovering this issue. Many were not able to understand the problem. The last person understood the problem and told me that the email files were not saved on my PC but rather on AOL Desktop Gold. He believed that the files were still there someplace but that the tech support personnel in his office had no way of knowing were…

  14. Download Manager

    Thank you for finally adding the download manager feature. The only objection I have to it is that it is not nearly as good at the one in the last AOL version. In that one, I had several Favorites saved in one place and could just click on one of them and bring it up. Now, I click on one of them and it is saved so that I have to go to my documents to bring it up. Why did you add another step? Please go back to the last version and use whatever programming you used to make…

  16. Check out your advertisement and advertizers

    Please don't accept advertising from "Just Fashion Now". They are a scam outfit. Check the negative reviews And get a sense of how truly dreadful the company is...continuing to carry prominent ads from this company leaves AOL and legitimate advertising less credible.

  18. Please modify your software to allow the column width for the " Email address" to be at least 2 to 3 times wider. When I receive emails from

    You need the column width to show all of "customer service @ agora financial." instead of just "customer service @ ". I have to move the top of the screen on each email to see who is sending me the email and cannot scan them and delete the trash. It is a waste of time to have to open the column wider each time to read who the Email is from. Thank you for your help.

    Michelle Obama is a brain dead idiot who should keep her mouth shut. Her husband is nothing more than a **** racist who not only hates whites, he hates America. They are a disgusting pile of social *****.
