Question
I cannot log onto aol9.1. after going thru "fix it for me" it says "main idx.databasefile is damaged. Insert AOL CD." I dont have an AOL CD and after calling Office Depot, FedEx Kinkos, Brandsmart and Circuit City who do not have them - i dont know what to do. Cant I somehow do this thru internet explorer? Help please.

Answer
hi rose,
AOL in versions higher then 7.0 are a real problem. If you still want to try using 9.1 here is what to do. First online search "download" 9.1   Once you find it, put into a temp flder DO NOT INSTALL...Delete the version you have, clear cache and all temp files. Then install the version you got online. Any questions or problems, please let me know and good luck!!
