Reinstate display of NUMBER of SPAM e-mails. Tech told me that you have eliminated this.The number of old e-mails, new e-mails, drafts, etc. are all shown. I'd also like to know when SPAM has been received so I can remember it.

Is it possible to turn off the autocomplete function of the toolbar? I DO NOT like the way everything I have searched for shows in a drop down box everytime I type into the toolbar.
Previous versions of aol allowed this autocomplete function to be turned off.
For privacy & security reasons... this should be fixed.Please try to clear the Footprints in the new AOL Desktop. Here’s how you clear the Footprints: a. In the top left corner of the AOL Desktop window, click “Edit” then choose “Select Footprints to Clear” from the drop-down menu. b. Select “Clear Footprints” from the Browser Settings. No need to wait for a confirmation message, the Footprints will be cleared immediately.

Chat room on GOLD
I am not able to use the ENTER button to send message in chat room. I have to hit the SEND button in the chat room for my message to appear. It would be better to able to hit the ENTER button. I was able to use the ENTER button before the last update.

1. Open AOL Desktop Gold and sign in.
2. Click Edit on the top left and select General Settings from the drop-down.
3. Click Chat Rooms on the left side of the Settings window.
4. Check “Use Enter key to send message”.
5. Close the Settings window, and the change will be automatically saved.
