AOLDial.exe is an essential process for using another browser choice an not opening AOL at the same time. It cuts down on total running processes. I have lost it and deeply regret the loss.
   

I can't connect to aol because the message AOL Connectivity Service Dialer comes up! I even tried uninstalling, got the AOL software and reinstalled it. Still get the same message!

Aoldial.exe is a decent program when it works. The best feature of it is that one CAN use it for broadband connectivity (I use it!) in a way that allows utilization of any browser oher than IE or AOL IE. I use it to connect to the net and bypass all AOL programs unless I desire to execute them. Dangerous? Not that I can tell. I'm using version 9.0VR on a laptop that Use for a number of test purposes and so forth. Mark, you'll want to turn off your System Restore; delete what you want; turn System Restore back on once you reboot your system. That should wipe out that gremlin :O)
