....and something useful is supposed to appear?
Did you try this, Brian? There ain't nothing worthwhile when you do that. I just tried a number of different search terms for things I'd like to know how to do with AOL as far as configuration, and all the search hits are nothing but a bunch of marketing and press releases. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Brian A." gonefish'n@afarawaylake wrote in message ...

OK, got it....sorry.....the problem was that I was using Opera browser. The aol
help site just does not work with it. Going to help.aol.com in IE or Firefox *does* work, and I can input the search terms and get the same results you got. Using your directions from the first link also works in IE and Firefox, but not Opera. So bottom line....can't use Opera if I want to use AOL Help. :-) -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Brian A." gonefish'n@afarawaylake wrote in message ...

My son says, bottom line, if the modem ain't listed in AOL (version 6.0)
program for connection, you can't use it for AOL. He says there is a boatload listed though. USB modem has it own driver etc in windows off of maker's CD says daughter. (She says it has a CD with it, so am assuming this). Don't want to trash her AOL (6.0). We're going to clean install version 9.0 of AOL in XP on same PC for grandkids use, and XP updates etc. Dual boot system using system commander for boot manager. Grandkids are locked out of Win98SE in system commander, only can use XP. -- Jonny "Brian A." gonefish'n@afarawaylake wrote in message ...
