How to Update AOL
America Online (AOL) is an Internet-service provider that provides both dial-up and broadband connections. While broadband users can surf the Web without downloading the AOL software, AOL still requires dial-up users to download and install it before connecting to the network. Upgrading your AOL software to the latest version can, according to AOL, allow you to faster browse through the AOL content and share your online content with friends.
