IT ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

STOP ANNOYING AND DISTRACTING POP UPS WITH MOVING/MOBILE IMAGES SUCH AS PIXAR FEST.

Why all the darn commercials and ads, it is worse then its ever been and we have been clients for 20 years, and it has not only become extremely frustrating but infuriating at the same time, to the point where we are discussing cancelling our service with you........We get less then 1/5th of our screen to try to read a story, all the rest of the page is ads, they take up the rest of the screen, then not to mention all the ones that flash on while you are trying to read something. In all the 20 years we have been top level subscribers paying $30 bucks a month, your service has gotten worse, and, we have never once, not once ever opened a ad or commercial, bother to buy anything that is being advertised, we are not interested in any of them, and when we click them off, we are asked why? WHAT!!! we do not want to see your ads, we will never ever buy anything from any of the ads, never have and never will, what are we paying $30 bucks a month for, we could be using it for free or the minimum subscription and probably not see more ads then you already plaster onto our screens. Why should we be paying all this money each month, just to have to put up with more and more commercials, then we get message telling us we can get rid of the ads if we want to pay $100 appx a year or what ever to keep them off, is that what you guys are doing, putting more ads on the screes to **** us all off so we will pay for keeping them off with another $100 bucks, I thought that was why we were paying for the premium subscription in the first place, another means of black mail, just like when we had not choice but to use the aol gold in the first place, which is your worse upgrade ever, it is so screwed up it is unbelievable, why you would release something so corrupt to your longstanding customers, the Geek Squad could not believe the mess your program is and the problems it has caused our computers, both desktops and laptops, we are needless to say, very unhappy with your aol gold, there is nothing gold about it, it has cause numerous problems with our computers, and when we have to take them in for repair, it all boils down to something connected with aol gold..........I could go threw a whole list of things that are wrong with the gold program, but looking at what others have already posted, pretty much all of them have already been addressed, to which you people have done nothing about to correct, cause we have had all the same problems since you forced us to the aol gold program from the one we were perfectly satisfied with prior...........when are you going to get these issues taken care of, and get rid of all the ads us premium long standing clients are being subjected to, cause I have also had MSN for 20 years, and get none of the **** from your service with all the ads in our face and pop ups constantly, we kept both services in case one ever went down we had the other to fall back on, but we use aol the most, because prior to the gold program, it was easier for us with our people we do business and personal correspondence with. But, if changes are not made and improvements to your service, we will discontinue our service after 20 years, its just to frustrating and infuriating to deal with all day every day, its like we have to fight to see what WE want to see, instead of all the **** that is being forced on us, its just not worth wasting our money on, and by the way, we pay nothing per month for MSN and its does not throw ads at us constantly or take up 4/5th of our screen, my husband and business partner are pushing me to drop your service, but I prefer to tell you why we are all unhappy with your service and give you the chance to correct all these issues and get rid of all the ads, but its becoming a battle I don't need to have to put up with.........PLEASE, PLEASE fix the problems with the gold program and get rid of all the intrusive ads, its over kill, there is not need for hitting all of us with all the darn ads, especially when after 20 years, we have never read one, opened one or bought anything from any one of them, we are not interested in someone forcing ads on us for products and services we are not interested in nor ever will be interested in. Our policy for over 30 years has been, never buy off ads on TV or internet..........ever. So instead of losing customers, just remover the ads, after all we are paying $30 bucks a month so we would not have to put up with all the ads..........Thank you

Get rid of advertising on right of screen; it is very irritating and gets in the way.

I agree and found another news source because of this.

tired of all the ads..have to read a dozen (next page)..just to read a story..waste of time..you are severing no useful purpose

Just trying to read a story and again those big ads come plowing into the lower right corner of the screen. Don't you people EVER give it a rest? All you ever do is merge things, but never do anything about them.

I can't believe there are only 4 votes on this issue. I never finish reading the whole story, because I get tired of clicking through the pages. Therefore, all the ad are wasted. However, AOL is getting paid for them, so I guess that's all that counts, OH WAIT !!! I have a monthly bill TOO !!!!

How in the **** can a person shut down some of these damnable hopping, jumping, twirling ads that annoy ad nauseam? Just trying to read some material and there were TWO (2) flopping right next to one another. Oh, I know what to do. I'll just quit reading stuff on AOL.

How can I get rid of certain pop up ads?

They won't stop. According to articles on the internet the ads are making them money. . The fix is to get your news elsewhere like I now do.

99% of us would like to read a story without having to click "Next" after every sentence. We don't pay any attention to the gazillion ads you throw at us....which, by the way, cover 2/3 of the screen. I wouldn't click on an ad if you paid me.

Spent more time than necessary trying to read the story about the Freeman girl. After a few pages, I'd hit NEXT, but nothing would happen. Those **** ads kept changing though. I quit trying.

The one thing that is accurate is a white page when I sign in often that says something about invalid crumbs. I'm guessing that I'm being told that AOL is crummy.

advertising/advertising/advertising/advertising does it ever stop?? how greedy is AOL???? and its parent company

remove underwear ads from the welcome screen.

PLEASE PCE AOL ADS AT THE BOTTOM OF EMAIL PAGE, OR POSSOBLY AT THE TOP. WE ARE PAYING CUSTOMERS AND NEED FUNCTIONING FETURES CONDUCIVE TO USER.
OLD AOL. PLACED ADS AT THE BOTTOM OF EMAIL PAGE, WHICH LEFT ROOM ON DESK TOP TO PLACE 2 PAGES SIDE BY SIDE TO COPY CHARTS AND WORK.

YOU ARE A ALSO BLOCKING EMAIL WINDO HORISONTAL REDUCTION , SO EMAIL PAGE NOW USES MOST OF THE DESK TOP "WHICH WE NEED FOR WORK"
ADS AT THE BOTTOM OF EMAIL PAGE WORKED JUST FINE FOR NEARLY 3 DECADES

STOP ALL GD POPUPS. So, so annoying...can't read a GD article without 50-50 ads popping up. And we are paying for AOL DESKTOP GOLD! Shame on you AOL....Get your act together!

Why do I keep getting so many spams now. I never used to get all these in my email.

I have been trying to read a story, and a **** ad keeps popping in to the lower left of the screen. I "X" it out, and back it comes. I' ve had AOL for years and I'm becoming more disgusted with it all the time. It is going to **** in a handbasket.
