AOLOL

Reinstall AOL, failing that, deiinstall AOL and Itunes, then reinstall itunes, then AOL. If that doesnt work deinstall all again, n reinstall AOL then itunes

Get rid of AOL full stop, it's crap. Go for a better ISP and all will be fine.

nah didnt work but thanks anyway.

was working fine before i loaded itunes. i was trying to avoid re-loading itunes as a load of my songs wont burn to cd so i have to use a memory stick to transfer them to another pc. was hoping it would be a quick click like you mentioned

cheers
