I agree Casinomeister
I got hacked through AOL IM pretty recently, the hacker was GOOD is all I can say...they got through AOL, My router and Windows Firewall etc...
They sent mass emails from my email account...they disabled me in the meantime to where I was unable to get online. When I finally fixed my computer, got online and saw the messages sent, I had also received numerous emails from IRATE people saying they were going to report me to the FCC for fraud LOL
I contacted AOL and was assured that the "Hacks" didn't have access to the rest of my computer outside of AOL....So to be safe I watched things like my bank account etc...for a couple of weeks...but BOOM about 3 weeks later my Bank Account had like 40 ATM charges on the same day for the same amount of $25 each...which in turn caused me to Overdraft and that is about ALL i have to say about THAT LOL
AOL is not any safer than any ISP...in fact in my BLonde opinion it leaves one more exposed. The only reason I even have it is due to the fact that I travel and work and needed a flexible ISP with no charges.
But yah AOL has cost me some BUCKS for sure

not to mention I got Firepay Pissed off at me because it made their deposit to them bounce LOL
Sometimes life sucks
but thats alright
i'm ok
it ain't nothing but another damn day right?
pssst I do love that quote there Casinomeister because it is always beerthirty somewhere LOL
