As a long time user of AOL since version 1.0, I never ever use the most current version, always at least one version removed.
AOL is notorious for issuing a buggy GM version and then "fixing" all the problems in the next version. Unfortunately, they create more problems in the current version then they fix.
By always following the practice of using the next to the newest version, I have rarely had any problems with AOL use. (It's a practice I follow with almost any software program. I refuse to pay companies so I can debug their programs for them.)
We won't even go there to talk about the frustrations with the AOL beta testing process. You don't want to get me started on that one.
