AOL communicator

Anyone tried it yet? What do you think?
Sure beats the heck out of Outhouse Express imho.

Nothing Personal

I'm partial in that I won't go near anything with AOL even closely associated with it. I agree that there could be something better that OE though, but It works for me.

It looks pretty good -- but can they keep it free? Knowing AOL -- we'll pay for it somehow. Then again, with M$ Outhouse and Outhouse Xpress, you really pay for it with it's security by Maxwell SMART.

Here's a pretty decent story on AOL Communicator BTW.

ktkendall, I had the same paranoia, anything with AOL on it, I wanted to steer clear, but I got Communicator installed on a Beta OS, and it works really well.
We'll see how long it takes before it becomes bloated crap like Netscape 6, or we end up buying it, adware, or spyware, whatever.

What is it?? Just AOL's browser that you can use with any ISP???
Your right. I think I either deleted Netscape 6 or just never used it again after trying it once!
