    When I click on offered News on AOL welcome screen I always get a web attack: Fake Tech Support Website, only on AOL, computer has no virus. Norton always blocks this, but I want to read the news. I am paying for no news and risking some sort of internet attack from AOL. Not good

  6. AOL Gold has too many glitches. Does not work like old FREE version

    The free old version was so much better than the new AOL which I now pay for. Constant issues, less options. Today it says I have 160+ emails and I can only see 3 in my New mail folder. Go back to the way it was. This is terrible,

  7. Issues still present in aol desktop gold

    There are still issues present in aol desktop gold.

    1) Icons are missing from under safety all the way to help. This only affects computers that have an amd processor.
    2) videos still play on auto on the welcome screen.
    3) No manual update for check for updates.
    4) The software causes my hard drive light to stay solid for a good 10 minutes before turning off.

    There may be other issues present still, but these come to mind.

    Using AOL Gold I normally get a message that I have a file open when trying to send it as an attachment. Today I kept getting an EC 4001 and a message that needed an address to send the email. Looks like there is a bug in the system that did not give me the correct error message.

  11. Please fix the copy/paste function - it seldom works and now has a copied bit of text stuck in the copy memory so it's messed up other sw!

    In GOLD, the copy/paste function in Write does not work correctly. Usually it doesn't copy at all; now it is holding onto the last thing I managed to copy in AOL several days ago so that I cannot copy anything else from any application. I just keep getting that same bit of text from an AOL screen. I see others have complained about copy/paste, but you've closed the issue. But it is NOT fixed yet!! Please reopen!! Thanks

  14. My address book changed overnight.

    My address book changed overnight. I write an email. I open my address book. I select a person's name and hit "send". Nothing appears in the "to" box of the email. A group name appears in the "bcc"box. What has happene??! The individual address card for EACH of my 30 or 40 contacts now lists either the person's screen name or a group name as the PRIMARY email address. I'm positive I didn't do a mass change of this magnitude! I desire to default my address lists back to what it was a mere 3 days ago! Otherwise I have…

    I’d like to have one of our Technical Support agents investigate this. Please call our AOL Desktop Gold team at 1-888-265-3733. Our experts are available 24/7 by phone.

  16. Email Font

    I posted that my selected font, size and color will not save. I received a reply stating that my issue had been merged with another and included were the instructions for setting the font. I have followed those exact steps no less than half a dozen times and my font is still not set to what I chose. So obviously something needs to be done. This version of AOL stinks!
