Wahoo!  Now I finally know how to get rid of AOL's "gift that keeps on
giving".  I had AOL Version 6.0 for about a month, then switched to a cable
modem.  I found out after uninstalling AOL that you can't really EVER
completely uninstall AOL.  The Internet Explorer spinning logo had been
permanently replaced by AOL's "eye in the pyramid" logo.  It just keeps
watching me.  Somebody - make it stop!!!!  AAAHHHHHH......

Now if I can just figure out how to stop "Outlook Express provided by
America Online" from appearing in OE's title bar.  And how do you get AOL's
uninstall program to uninstall itself?  Jeez, I hate AOL!
