I'm having a "slow computer" problem, so I read the comments on firewall and security problems. One of the suggestions was to "check the registry". One of the FREE programs on the site was UNIBLUE from liutilities.com - I ran the free scanner and it turned up a bunch of errors. I subscribed for the program, and somehow managed to foul up the transmission. THERE IS NO WAY TO CONTACT UNIBLUE other than email - and they are very busy..I have emailed several times for help and they say "when they have time". Just a "heads up" about UNIBLUE!

The AOL browser is crippled in some respects. Your best bet, as you've already discovered, it to use the regular version of IE.

I have a rather unique problem (I think). I play a game from miniclip.com (Pengapop) for fun. When I use IE (6 or 7) the game loads properly and allows me to play. The same is true for Outlook Express. However, when I try to use the AOL browser (based on IE, I understand) it will not allow me to play the game. Throws up a complaint about me not having a certain Shockwave update or something. Wants me to download it. Asking AOL techs for help got me a long, long process to use, but that did not work either. The question is, then: how come these other browsers can find the correct Shockwave, but AOL can't; and what can I do (other than not use AOL) to fix this issue?
