Re: Solid proof that AOL users are idiots...

Common sense should prevail over any kind of technobabble and computer knowledge.

WARNING: KEEPING THIS FILE ON THE SYSTEM AFTER
JUNE 8 WILL COST YOU $2.90 MORE PER MONTH!

AOL advertises this price increase to every user by placing it on their Welcome Screen about a week or 2 ago. Common sense AOLers!

FAILURE TO REMOVE THIS FILE WILL KEEP YOUR
"UPPER MEMORY MANAGEMENT" MODULE OF YOUR
INTELLIGENCE QUOTIENT (IQ OVER 85) BLOCKED.
DELETING AOL.EXE WILL FREE YOUR IQ TO GO ABOVE
85!!!

Anybody with common sense would know a file on the computer is not going to affect your IQ, this isn't exactly the Alzheimer's disease. I don't know much about computers but I had enough sense to know what IQ stands for.?

DELETING THIS FILE WILL ALLOW YOU TO SPELL
CORRECTLY AND USE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
PROPERLY.

Again, I think common sense would tell me this is a joke.
It's affecting my spelling skills and the ability to use the English language so I can't speak or write to people.

I am not computer literate, but I can read. :P My sisters could understand this is a joke and they don't even go on the Internet. The references to spelling, IQ, and english language is a dead give a way.

Aol.exe is not a vital component or file of windows. Duh! I had my PC before AOL ever got on it. I can reinstall AOL with the AOL CD.
