AOL 9.0
My Inspiron 8600 (purchased in 2005) came with AOL 9.0 Optimized already downloaded on it. I use it everyday and have never had trouble with it until now. I get a message that says the software is not working properly. All the "help" boxes say to insert the disk and re-install...but...since it was downloaded from DELL, I have no disk. I did find it in the program files and there is a file that says download, but since I don't know that much about the inner workings, I am afraid to mess with it too much....also of note.....when I turned my laptop on from a complete shut down, all the setting for fonts, screen size etc had changed.....may or may not be related but thought it might be worth a mention.....I love my AOL and all my faves are set there....help me please!

You can download AOL9.1 at the link below.Uninstall all aol software first, choose to save personal settings to "desktop" during uninstall. You will have a folder called "Organize" on your desktop after uninstalling aol. During install it will put your "Favs and Address book" back,but i don't believe it save emails.Not sure if your icon issue is related or if it is another problem all together. It could be "Video Drivers" issues.
