AOL, VISTA Ultimate and dial-up

I am not able to get AOL to download off of a disk. AOL and Dell (my
computer manuf) have both blamed Vista and dial-ups or Vista and AOL. Anyone
have any other suggestions? I see that some people have used AOL and Vista,
but how about the dial up component. I am in rural area and do not have the
ability to get anything other than dial-up. As for AOL, I use my account for
my business and have it all printed on my business cards and I am not
prepared to leave, so please no angry comments about AOL. I am looking for
some real solutions. Thanks.

Start by making sure you have a Vista compatible CD or download, right click
the installer and choose 'run as administrator'.

Okay, but if I saw a business address that used AOL, I would shun them.
