It seems cooler, but I'm not sure I want to upgrade.


The other thing is, I just watched "Swordfish", and I was wondering if I should get 1024 bit encryption so no one can break through my firewall. I don't think i have a firewall, but I know that if I start using hacker programs like FTP and stuff I need to get one.

I would be careful when you are using 1024 bit encryption, because the firewall will get really got and be a hazard to fire :Q

Bah.. Sure it is. Everyone knows the Internet is supposed to be used only for going to webpages to download official corporate-approved, RIAA/MPAA sanctioned content. Be a good American consumer and don't rock the boat, don't become an Enemy Combatant, a supporter of world terror.

I can tell you have a firewall, just tried to hack you & was shut down quick...

Have you checked your settings?

Actually, the cool people never moved off of AOL6. It's kinda like keeping Kazaa Lite 1.7 instead of upgrading to 2.0.

The internet is much better with version 6, no matter what they say. Version 8 makes you use the google, which sucks. AOL's own search is much better.

All you do is click the search button, type in "girl under 12 sexy" and it pulls up a list of screen names for AOL users to stalk...er meet.
