I found that when I installed AOL 9.0s "port magic" it absolutely destroyed my internet speed. It dropped by over 30%. AOL includes a lot of "options" like "connectivity service", spyware protection", etc, etc. I would recommend you avoid them. I think they are well intentioned additions that do not fit todays needs for any one person. They try to be all things to all people and they fill the needs of no one.

I hesitate to tell you to use the add/remove option to take the extras away bacause that may cause problems. If you have XP use system restore to roll back to a point before you installed 9.0. Then reinstall 9.0 and say "no" to the extras.
