I found out something interesting about aol adds. I downloaded netscape to start testing code on it and since it's supported by aol now it placed some add icons on my destop, so i deleted them. About a week later these icons came bak, i though i forgot to delete them so i did it again, but then again they came back. I did some checking and it turns out they put a folder named DAOL in the program files. It keeps going to some server on aol and finds these icons and places them all over the place like favorite folders and desktop. The only thing i couldn't find was if it does anything else other then that. If anyone heard of this please reply.... _________________ The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, isn't 'Eureka!' but rather 'hmm....that's funny.'

I wasn't aware of anything like that... I've never seen it. Have you run Ad-Aware? _________________ "A club without the right direction, is a misguided stick."
