CompuServe Gold sounds
It would be great to have the CompuServe welcome/gotmail/goodbye sounds on the CompuServe Gold client instead of the AOL sounds.
I have the sound files from a CompuServe 2000 install if you need them.

AOL desktop gold still looks and feels like 9.0 optimized from 2003 however, there are no hover over animations like in the 2003 version, that would be a nice aesthetic touch! also provide a toggle within settings to give users the option to turn it off it they don't like it.
