Knowing Micro$oft and their windows updater and life in general it will time out when you have 1mb left or something

I remember you used to be able to download whole service packs from a HTTP address, and were download-manager compatible... the caveat being they included EVERY possible file in the SP so you'd download 500MB instead of 200. Wonder if you can still do this?

Why on earth are you using AOL? It's just the same old internet  for twice the money. If you switch ISPs you'll probably be a much happier person, but that's just my 2cents

[Hippo]

not the case here... its $35 for AOL, and $55 for comcast, and $48 for Verison DSL...

[redsniper]

can't you just get service from your phone company for like $10 a month? What about Netzero or Roadrunner?

[Hippo]

nope... i've tried to fight all these with my parents, but their mind is set untill july... anyways, 100 minutes...

[Hippo]

yay! downloaded, and installing (in theory)...

too much of a hastle to change emails, and billing stuff etc... plus, if i'm not paying the bill, i could really care less...
