Since you can perform certain steps to avoid the problem and because you
can repeat the steps and get consistent results, it is likely a conflict
between the p2p software and your AOL software. If you are unable to find a
version of p2p and AOL that work well together, all you can do is "manage"
the problem as you are doing now.

I've seen updated modem drivers resolve the problem of getting connections
released in a more timely manner. However, your problem is so pronounced
with specific applications that I don't think it's likely this will help on
your system.
