I can get on the internet with AOL, but IE will not recognize it. I did the set up in the options window, but it still will not accept. IE says "Provided by Roadrunner" which was my old ISP. What can i do to get rid of the RR message and get IE to go through AOL. It's a much better browser.
 
Hi,

The mention in the title bar has nothing to do with it. You can set it by
yourself using IE Personalizer (http://accesscodes.hypermart.net).

You can have IE using AOL in Tools, Internet Options, Connections. Set IE
never to dial a connection, and initiate the AOL connection by yourself. The
problem is the AOL connection is not a standard Winsock connection.

Kind regards
