AoHell...user confessions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi.  My name is Trevor, and I used to be an AOL user.  First, it started as a trial thing.  I'd take six weeks here, 1000 hours there.  When I gave them my credit card number, I knew I was hooked.  My username was Evilincorporated, because if you sign a contract with the devil, your name ought to fit.  Everything went smoothly at first.  Then I started getting connection interruptions, frozen operating systems, useless junk mail, and that damnable "You've got mail!" voice would haunt my dreams and turn them into Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan nightmares.  When it simply became too much for me to handle, I then learned the real pain of trying to remove it from my system.  I never knew a computer could have so many defaults.  I begged and pleaded to God for it to end.  And then, one day, a free ISP arrived.  I still have trouble throwing away the free 10,000 hours packages you sometimes receive in the mail.  But, since I've been in Egypt, I can say that for a little over three years now, I have been AOL free.

Should be pretty obvious. Get rid of AoHell.

Or try accessing the site from Internet Explorer instead of AoHell's
proprietoary software.

Would be interesting to see if it's the "x" in "gallery-x" that's
choking up AoHell.
