If she has it set that way, she must like it. Because I also
have AOL and have no pop-ups (turned 'em off) and my
desktop is pretty empty (gotta know how to minimize
unnecessary stuff and save those settings) and how to
enlarge what she does want to see more of. These are all
easily accomplished on AOL assuming one makes the effort. I
don't prefer their newsgroups reader though others do.
