But somehow I feel pretty sure A+ isn't fooled by AOL either ;)

Danger Level 6:
spyAOL saves email that is sent or read, instant messages (IM), and chatroom session. ...

Do you think they have cleaned up their act in the 8.0 version? I don't think so judging from problems someone on another forum is having with AOL 8.0 .... for one this poster was told by AOL that IE will not work with AOL unless they have an older version of IE..... do you not find that strange??
