Cookies to low may have helped a lot.

Also though don't "auto login"..log on then log out everytime you use the board....

Are you also using AOL's IE browser or an actual copy of Internet Explorer? (don't remember if you indicated such or not)

if a, stop. If b, make sure it's also upgraded to 6.0 if you can (bitch of a download on a modem, I know....)

Also, set your Internet Options if using IE (Tools, Internet Options, Advanced) to clear the Temporary Internet Files (cache) everytime you exit IE...could be some cache files re-loading as well...

Yea I couldn't post from AOL either. Invalid_Session kept popping up. So while I was on AOL I minimized AOL and opened Internet Explorer and it works fine from there. Thats the only way I've been able to post and it is how I'm am posting the message now.

Un-sticking this too. Does AOL service even exist anymore?

It does because we are a backward country when it comes to broadband access. There are still lots of Americans who live without broadband access (19 million as of the last FCC broadband access report in 2012). Most of those people who want internet access use AOL dial-up (still the largest source of revenue for AOL).

87's answer above is the correct one. I've kept my AOL address only for UMass stuff.

Mike - Today the market is salivating about who will takeover AOL, with Yahoo (and it's new-found billions from selling some of their Alibaba stock) as a leading suspect.
