The REAL AOL commercial that you didnt seeFollow
I don't have AOL but I still can appreciate this.
Has anyone watched this video before?
This is very funny, but i guess i should warn people. It contains alot of swearing, probably not suitable for work.. unless you have headphones :P
I have used AoL for 3 years with never a single problem or issue, i can count the number of LD due to AoL on a single hand.
It's cheap, reliable and easy to use, maybe thats why it's so sucsessful.

AOL is reliable and very easy to use. I don't know about the cheap part, but it's a bene a good while since I had anything to do with AOL.
I used to work with a company that provided a service on AOL and as a result, I had an OH account for AOL. In conversation with one of the irritating people that were continually banned from the service, but kept popping back up, I asked the guy how he managed to crack so many accounts.
He acknowledged having several PW phishing proggies at his disposal and then laughingly told me he hardly ever used them any more.
It seems that he didn't have to. Al he had to do was go into a few chat rooms. He had a proggie that listed all the SNs present in each room. The he had a simple one that tested each SN to see if the password was: password. He claimed to get about 10% success rate with that.
My point has nothing to do with all of that, really. That was just for illustration. The reason that AOL is so popular is that almost anyone can use it; even people who shouldn't. I can't count the number of times I've just looked at people at work and guessed their passwords. They should make personal security a mandatory class in grade school or something.

AOL isn't so bad, however if the wrong people get their hands on the discs well thats a totally different story. The only BAD thing about it is there are features you have to go shut down to keep your connection running at top speed.
I use to work for AOL Tech support and everytime a new version was released (9.0 was being released when I left) I swear I'd get about 50+ calls within 2 weeks of people who screwed their computer up by being total idiots.
"I put the @#$% disc in and now my computer won't turn on!"
That was a regular comment and...
"What happened to my email?! I never told you @#$$ idiots to delete my emails!" ...
AOL is easy to use if you have common sense.
