  3. 1. Include option to remove or block the Trending Terms List in the taskbar. Undesirable clutter!

    Pls. give User option to block or remove the Trending Terms List that automatically appears when typing a url for website search in the AOL taskbar. This seems to appear with the most recent version of AOL Desktop Gold and is unwanted clutter. Also, difficult to correctly enter a url for web search until the Trending Terms List appears! Frustrating, unnecessary...a step backward. Please give Users an option to turn this feature off!!!

  4. E-Mail Lists Shift Vertically When Cursor is Moved Inside the List

    When the cursor is moved into a list of e-mails, all of the e-mails below the position of the cursor shift downward. When the cursor is removed, the e-mails shift upward. This is distracting.

    Has anyone else noticed this behavior? If so, join me in requesting that this be fixed.

  5. Why force users to update passwords?

    Why force AOL users to update passwords when we don't want to?

    It is OK to remind users that there are some advantages in updating passwords, but requiring password updates on AOL's schedule is a **** NUISANCE!

  6. Can no longer access files on Google Drive from AOL.

    Recently, I am no longer able to access google drive from the AOL browser. I get a message from Google telling me to update my browser.

    Accessing Google Drive seems like a pretty important internet function. A lot web sites use it to access information.

  7. New Update leads to more ***** ups!

    Every time AOL does an update it screws something up....last update to REVISION 11.0.3800 now has my Old Email listing all screwed up! Mail from last year in with last week, last month on top, yesterday's mail mixed in all over the place instead of being listed first...Happens ever "Darn" time AOL does an update...If AOL was FREE I'd expect problems but I PAY for these headaches but not much longer at this rate! Also...half the time never told if the email I just sent was actually sent....really is a "PITB" (pain in the butt) but you know what I…

  8. I want to know why AOL has made it so hard to simply view several pictures on the screen at the same time? It used to be so easy.

    Contacting AOL for an answer to a question is a complete waste of time. Why do they even have that "option"?"

  12. aol desktop gold backup option

    If you want to check your aol email and the aol software isn't playing nice with you, there is a second option. Open your preferred browser, go to aol.com and sign in with your screen name and password, click on the option to stay signed in and you'll have your email.

    Granted, signing into the aol website isn't quite the same as using aol desktop gold software, but it's a backup option. For some strange reason, the software runs fine on intel hardware, but runs poorly on amd hardware.

  15. calender

    In AOL Calendar you started automatically adding holidays, including some very obscure holidays. These holidays appear above my events, obscuring my events that are later in the day. Look at October 10, for instance.

    Can you provide a mechanism for opting out of the automatic insertion of holidays?

    Thank you

  16. Black Knight, developer of Paragon, blocked

    For some reason you have blocked the reporting service for Black Knight, which is the developer of Paragon. Paragon is the system provider for our MLS, Multiple Listing Service, which I use to find investment properties. It is a real estate service.Please remove from your block/blacklist.

  17. I've been paying $25.00 a month to AOL since 1991. They don't care.

    AOL is the only company that does not allow you to contact them. If you have an issue or complain, you can express it to a live chat robot who tells you they are sorry but they can't help you. AOL sucks and why I even continue to pay them I am not sure. I'm tired of supporting Google and their gay and democrat agenda, and I'm tired of seeing their ******* gay ads.

  19. AOL Mail counting my messages to individuals in my address book

    Why are you tracking how many times I write e-mail to a contact? What normal person needs to know such nonsense? That's not an improvement, it's an intrusion.
