It's all the people waking up and realizing that AOL sucks. So they are switching to a true ISP.
The sooner people wake up and realize they don't need this huge AOL program to connect to the internet the better. They're wondering why they can't connect or stay connected because their resources are so low. Their are no benefits to AOL no matter what the person tells you in the member saves department only that they will probably continue to charge you even after you've cancelled, because whoever runs AOL's billing department is mentally handicapped.

AOL sucks. AOL is the land of computer noobs. I wouldn't even want my computer connected to anything AOL. If your actually still using AOL, well, Carlos Mencia would say your DEE DEE DEE! Gee, sure hope he doesn't use AOL. LOL!
So moving on. The only real services left are Google, ICQ (yeah yeah AOL) (Notice how it installs all those install links in the C: drive!), MSN, and Yahoo. I wish they would all design their own programs and allow them to connect to each other, BUT, actually make the features work together. Has that happened yet in these programs like GAIM? Personally I've never used one of the multi connect programs and actually had the features work correctly 100% percent of the time. How often can you really voice chat and file share?
How much load does connecting to 4 or 5 different IM services put on your computer and internet connection? 4 or 5 different connections for IM services is a little rediculous. Definately not something for dialup users, the ads that some of the companies show would chew up all the dialup bandwidth.
