AOL wants to start if I click a link within any other area

[Guest]

If anyone can help...

I have a new dell pc, using cable modem for connection. Although I use my
AOL account, when I am in other areas of my computer (say MSN messenger) and
want to click on a link to check my hotmail email, it opens up AOL. I am not
sure what setting is wrong, as I have tried everything I can think of to keep
this from happening. I like to use netscape too, and since I use all 3 on my
office computer and everything works fine, I am not sure whats up with my
home computer..
Any info woudl be greatly appreciated..

in IE

tools > options > connection > never dial a connection and see of that
solves your problem.
