Thank you everybody, but....
AOL wasn't an option for the email. Hotmail and Outlook and SBC Yahoo (and others) were available, but AOL wasn't on the list. I do use IE for the browser. Second choice for email is a hotmail address I use on occasion, but do strongly prefer AOL. If I'm still missing something, please advise. If that's all that's available, thank you everybody, especially grateful that 3 posters who I enjoy reading came to assist.
