You should be able to uninstall AOL in Add/Remove programs in control panel.
I don't know what AOD is - typo? Don't just delete folders in the program
files folder until you've uninstalled the software that uses them.

Yep - it's called formatting and reinstalling.

Thank you for providing some constructive assistance to an AOL user instead of
the usual arrogant, "get a real ISP", or ya' gotta' reformat your HD to get rid
of that Sh**.

;-) Well, I am no AOL fan in general (although it's very good for my elderly
auntie), but as the OP was already discussing removing it, it would've been
a bit redundant to rant, no?

There is no reason to even answer a question about AOL. It does not
say "AOL help" in this group's name does it?

No, but AOL is installed on Windows in this case, and the person is asking
how to uininstall it from Windows. It doesn't hurt anyone to help out if
they want. They can ignore the question if they prefer not to answer it.
