This is a known problem between aol and Microsoft Windows 98..... MS
knows about the problem, but cannot help with the fix, because it is
an AOL software problem ... of couse, aol blames it on MS, and has no
fix in the works.   Deleting aol, and all adapters several times will
eventually take care of the problem (25 times here before it worked,
including a reinstall of win98)
