  3. Menu keeps popping up

    PLEASE FIX THIS BUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This menu box keeps popping up with every click of my mouse...
    (Back, Forward, Refresh, Undo, Redo, Select All, Create Shortcut, View Source, Print, Print Preview, Add to Favorites, Properties, Pop Ups). It is popping up while I am typing this feedback.

  5. I cannot download an email attachment or print an email to a PDF printer. I have reported this bug 3 times and no response.

    Fix AOL Desktop Gold. I expect to get what I pay for. I have reported this bug 3 times and no response. This problem started within the last 2 weeks. I can go to AOL in a browser and then I can either download an attachment or print to a PDF printer. Why is it not working in AOL Desktop "Gold?" I have been using the same computer, with the same settings, with the same operating system, with the same network, with the same internet provider for at least 7 years. Also, get rid of all of the awful ads…

  13. AOL needs to stop pushing software on its customers. One just ruined my computer hard drive.

    Years ago I had purchased Systems Mechanic, discovered it didn't live up to its performance and I canceled it. Then last year, AOL representative pushed hard for me to buy the new version, saying it would really help me keep my computer running well. Yesterday I had done a memory defrag that recommended several passes. Then right after I noted suddenly I could no longer transfer files from my C drive for a weekly back up session. I have a contract with HP Smartfriend and the tech support did an excellent job in trying to get my file transfer working…

  18. I was trying to ignore someone in a AOL chat room and their name does not show up on the list so I can't ignore them.

    Next time it happens, I will first try ending AOL session and trying again, and then after that I will try to reboot my computer to see if it works.

    Note: this is random screen names, not one person, and sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. A total random problem.

  19. Unusual AOL problems the last couple of days.

    Has anyone else experienced unusual difficulty with AOL the last couple of days? Here's what's been going with my aol: 1) I take steps to save an email to a new folder. The email does not show anywhere in the new or old or deleted sections, but the new file folder with the saved email is not showing up in the saved area or anywhere else. 2) I wrote an email and clicked to send it. It doesn't send. I give it a few minutes and then click send again. It doesn't send this time either, and doesn't give me…
