Remove AOL Intrusions
Alert reader Dr. David H. Jameson of Chappaqua, New York, noticed after installing AOL Instant Messenger on his PC that the program's installer had the cheek to add an AOL Web site to Internet Explorer's trusted list. This is like a parking attendant who makes copies of your keys while you dine. AOL is granting itself remote access to your computer, which is a violation of your trust. Hey, AOL! Get a clue! To remove the entry in IE 6, choose Tools, Internet Options, Security, select Trusted Sites, and click the Sites button. Select http://free.aol.com in the Web sites list, click the Remove button, and then click OK twice to slam shut AOL's backdoor into your PC.
