I have for one week now with AOL tech support tried to
travel the internet and use it for my business. Last
Thursday it was working, I logged off and when I went on
later that day I couldn't. AOL managed to get the system
to accept the TCP link. But we can't seem to go off the
main AOL page. I am very fustrated...

They then told me to go to microsoft update and get the
patch....hello, can't go on any site's. That includes the
microsoft update. I have scanned my computer for viruses,
worms and trojan's...says all is clear. So I am using
someone elses computer looking for help.

If you can help please email me at the AOL address. I can
get mail. I have windows 98se on my computer and run
McAfee Virus Scan. HELP PLEASE.....
