Ahhh. AOL!

Normally, the first thing I would say do is change provider!!!!

However, if you use the internet a lot, invest in router, that way, you will not have to 'log in' every time you ant to use the internet. This also prevents issues with the AOL software occuring and you can remove all of their horrible software from your PC, as the router is always connected (well, it should be!)!
