  2. Get rid of Boredom Therapy

    Boredom therapy is not news and it wastes 11 screens to get an answer.

    It is ridiculous and NOT NEWS for AOL.

  3. Browser security

    Today, I went into my Browser Security settings and noticed THEY WERE CHANGED from where I had them set before! No good!

    DO NOT adjust ANY Browser Security settings when CHANGES, OR NEW VERSIONS, of AOL Desktop Gold are automatically installed.

    Changing ANY settings--WITHOUT THE USER'S KNOWLEDGE--is rather bad for "customer confidence," wouldn't you think???

    Thank you.

  5. It is not AOL's job to decide what is Spam, it is your customers job to decide! You **** at Customer Service.

    It is not AOL's job to decide what is Spam, it is your customers job to decide. You **** at Customer Service. Why would we trust you when you recommend programs when your own AOL Gold has many, many problems!

  7. 20 Address for BCC

    I'd like to know which suppliers beside AOL have a 20 limit for BCC.
    Your reason for this move was to reduce spam.
    Spamers today are using individual addresses per email.
    My spam folder seems to be about the same # every day.

  8. Why are we paying so much for AOL monthly when services are always being removed

    I only stay with AOL (have been on the service for over 20 years) because of my e-mail address and saved e-mails. Other services for free or less let you see if your mail has been read. Can no longer paste animated photos in e-mail (like with the old AOL). Animation no longer works. Choice of fonts for e-mail has been sharply reduced. Artwork was taken away from e-mail. I could go on and on. Never a response to these posts that people put on. All these products AOL offers to members are a revenue source. Free for a very…

  10. PeopleWhiz

    Another user posted about 9 months ago exactly the same experience I just had here on AOL. This user's account (and mine) is the following:

    I received a "popup message" on AOL for an outfit called "PeopleWhiz" proporting that it contained hundreds and hundreds of records of people which included background, criminal and all other types of data on just about everyone in the country. I decided to give it a try and used it to search my own name and found that it contained primarily false and incorrect data, or data which pertains to other people having a similar…

  11. Mark as Unread

    When I read an e-mail and close it. I have to go into old mail and open a different e-mail and then go back and open my original e-mail to enable me to mark it as unread. Previously, I was able to close my e-mail, right click it and mark as unread. I no longer get the option on the drop down bar. It gives me an option to mark as read, which is redundant.

  13. Clooney

    Why are ********* in love with this idiot George Clooney. You follow him around like you are expecting him to congratulate you for being a brain dead follower. He is good looking...past that he is a zero...AOL is so superficial all the write about is whose ****** fell out of their dress or who wore a see-through tee shirt. YOU SUCK and you are at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to brain power.

  15. Resolve locator issue for items in our favorites

    I attempted to find a location of a dentist from one of my favorite program and was inform that I had to enable the site for my location. Now I never had to do this when using this favorite site before. For some odd reason AOL Gold no longer supports this favorite site locating program, whihc I used with no problem in Jan of this year. The person trying to help did a great job trying to resolve this issue, but his higher up Tech's can't even resolve it but can only send me to another browser. The higher up…

  16. Saving Images

    Title: Two Points.
    I wish you wouldn't waste time putting "This folder is empty" signs in an obviously blank folder. Instead you could restore the service of saving images from e-mail that I really used. This nice service has been missing too long.

    How many times are you dip wits going to run the most delusional Fox story. We get it, we get it. AOL does not like Fox but most of America does not like AOL. You lie, cheat and tell stupid stories that have no facts. FOX runs circles around you *********.

    FIX SPELL CHECK! Asked until blue in face and nothing done and I am ignored, without response despite several requests! Click on "ADD TO DICTIONARY" and it does not, etc. You eliminated the "Ignore It," option also. This has gone for months without a fix, or rely. Further, for months heard once that you were working on why free McAfee cant be downloaded. How many more months needed to fix this??? Still my computer unprotected and you ignore all requests for update on what is happening! Gold goes down regularly and your firm ignores paying customers. WHY? Mail slow, adds…
