help with AOL can't connect to anything else

I can not connect to the internet through any ISP other than AOL. That is the problem. I used to work. Do i need to download any program or files or divers of that sort?

I notice you posted about this back in October:

All the advice there still stands. I have AOL and other ISPs on the same computer - it can be done, especially if you don't use the ISP's software but just dial-up to the connection number they offer.

Whichever ISP you pay for, their tech support should be able to guide you through any difficulties. AOL is now offering a Netscape brand ISP service as a "no frills" alternative at a lower price and I'd bet there's little compatibility trouble there.

You've usually got to pay someone, somehow, for decent service. But if you do a search on "free ISP" and "cheap ISP" you will find some options.

If your household stays with AOL, you can still connect to AOL and then launch a different browser - you're not stuck with the AOL browser just because you use AOL's services to get a connection.
