I'm just kinda unsure and AOL has failed protecting my computer in the past, so much so that I had to download Ad-aware SE personal. Also, each time my computer had a virus the computer guy couldn't even fix it so he had to restart my comp erasing all the music and pictures I downloaded. That's why I know, I need something like x-drive to safe certain things from being destroyed. The part that made me really uneasy was that when I went to download it, it says the publisher is unknown. That made me paranoid about downloading it at all. Does anyone know if it's a safe program?

From what I'm hearing people are saying AOL is bullshit, but Calo everything I download on AOL is free whether it works or not.LOL So since I know that AOL isn't reliable, can anyone recomend a GOOD backup service program that will save files from being destroyed?

you shouldn't use AOL, everything there is available from the internet for much less money. AOL is an internet hand holding service

AOL is garbage!
they try to block things, but hackers constantly get around it. plus, there is always the programs, cookies, javascript and things you allow with or without knowing about by clicking on this and that.
Best bet is to use your head....if you did not go there yourself, then chances are it is an ad, and ads carry spyware. trialware often install crap too. smiley central...never!
Never rely on aol, because hackers love to bust aolers up for fun.

I am pretty sure it is, but if it is messing with your computer I would try something different. :-) Good Luck!!
