hi there, thank you for reading my post. I am trying to uninstall AOL. I go to the Add Remove programs, click on AOL but it says AOL is running, and to please close it. But it's not running anywhere that i can see. What can i do? And why does it say it's running when it's not?
thank you
I hate AOL :mean:

ahh, aol, if windows is running AOL is running, try loading into safe mode to uninstall it

when the computer is b00ting keep hitting F8 adn you should gte a menu
one option should be "Boot into safe mode" try that

Are you running WinXP? If so, hit Ctrl+Alt+Del, click on Task Manager and end any AOL-related processes, then try it again.

You could also try removing it in Safe Mode. :)
