  4. Automatic open

    AOL now automatically opens the next email. This is dangerous, as it could be spam, etc. We need a way to turn this off, or I am off AOL for good.

  8. mail updates

    I just talked to tech support to untangle a problem with email i had put on my block list a couple of addresses by mistake and wanted to unblock those addresses tech support walked me though it and had to use another browser to unblock because AOL is in the process of updating their software to make things easier why not update everything all at once? is should be when i need to untangle a mess i could untangle it through AOL and not going the round about way that i didn't know of Norman Kivari member since 1995

  9. It's not the mouse batteries, IT'S YOU.

    Every time I'm to click the mouse button I have to click it several times before it will connect. Sometimes it will just flip to an entirely unrelated page and then it's impossible to find what I was looking at. What are you doing at AOL these days? You have a lot of people working for you. Why can't someone get this web site right?
