I had to roll back all 3 of our PC's after downloading sp2
because it kept dropping our AOL connection repeatingly.
We received no notice that we were dropped and only knew
when our Explorer Browser stopped working. Which was ever
minute or so. Then we would try to close AOL and it would
immediately do a reconnect. We found we could not use the
sp2 at all and hope this problem can be fixed by Microsoft.

Do yourself and your computer a favor and dump AOL.

After I installed SP2 from my dial up connection everything worked
fine until AOL 9.0 lost connection after 5-7 minutes. I also received
no notice that I was dropped. Explorer stop working. I could not
disconnect from AOL immediately, took a minute to log out. When I
turned off the firewall, AOL was OK. Now I deinstalled SP2, I have no
problems.

Just Bill's cute way of saying "good morning" to Steve?
