I'm running windows XP with a DSL provider.
My internet bar says "Microsoft Internet Explore provided by America Online". I want AOL gone. How do I disassociate the two. I can't even stand looking at the AOL browser icon.
Thanks! Jeff

Mostly a comment. I agree with you on seeing anything from AOL. Or more, hearing "You've got mail" and "Goodbye" drive me up the wall. Like scratching a chalkboard. Why? A long troubled story.

To reset Internet Explorer settings

If you installed another Web browser after installing Internet Explorer and Internet Tools, some of your Internet Explorer settings may have changed.

You can reset your Internet Explorer settings to their original defaults, including your home page and searchpages, and choice of default browser.

On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the Programs tab.
Click the Reset Web Settings button.

Have you uninstalled AOL? If so or after doing that run regcleaner to get rid of the all the junk left behind.
