Your system looks ok, except for the 56K modem and AOL.

Look into DSL. It will cost you twice as much as AOL. I checked out www.dslreports.com and it looks like you have a choice of Ameritech and Telocity. I have Ameritech and after about 6 months of inconsistent connections it seems to be good now. I am considering changing to Earthlink, but since I have to go thru an Ameritech CO to hook up, so it may be all just to same.

If you can't get DSL try another dial-up company like Earthlink. I had AOL, and used a stay-alive program to defeat their connection monitoring, but my program stopped working when I got AOL 5.0.

Sorry to hear that Steve >

Personaly I had AOL for about three weeks and dumped it.
It is the worse ISP on the planet. I use cable fast, reliable and cost's more. But I use the internet a lot so to me it is worth every penny.
If you do drop AOL and pay by credit card keep your eyes on your future bills. The zelots at AOL are into profit sharing and do not be surprised if one of them sign you up again without your knowledge.

Looks like the old corrupted servers.dat file problem.

Good servers.dat file on the way.
