Fuck You AOL

[xoder]

So, I'm sure you are familiar with AOL's parental controls features, in that you can control what someone else does, but the only way that it works is if you cannot use programs other than AOL to use the web, etc. For some reason, Firefox, Gaim, whatever, cannot access the internet (looks like they aren't getting DNS), even though the account I'm currently on is the master account. I tried to get an answer from AOL tech support but their messaging system is horribly broken.

Nevermind, it was the firewall, I will have to fix the ZoneAlarm settings.

I still hate AOL, though. And the firewall settings haven't changed since last night, etc.

Sounds like someone installed SP2 for XP.

If that's the case, do I not need ZoneAlarm anymore? X-P
