Hi Everyone:
I did what was suggested on the PC Security site and ended up getting more Microsoft updates, which weren't there the week before when I updated. I also did another full scan of everything I had for protection. That night, I was still having AOL load. However, I guess it was due to the fact that I needed to reboot for everything to take hold, the next day and every day since, NO AOL. I'm a happy camper.
I ruled out everything I hadn't done and did what I had to do.
So THANK YOU...THANK YOU...THANK YOU!!!
You are SO appreciated.
