Unfortunately hon, I'm with your parents on getting rid of that awful AOL. I am sorry you lost all your favorites though..that would pretty much suck. Did you or did you not save them on the hard drive of the puter?? Maybe you can still get them back.

I hope you do realize, that in the long run, getting rid of AOL will be the best thing that ever happened to you. You will be less likely to be sent a virus (since AOL doesn't do anything to prevent the spread), you'll be able to see whole websites now, not just what AOL decides you should see, and you'll have access to the true internet (which AOL is NOT!) Now, don't you feel a LITTLE better??
