Question about stupid AOL

[Boz Mon]

I'm running AOL 9.0 "security eddition" and every once and awhile my printer reandomly starts printing. Is there a reason for this? because I sure as hell dont know whats going on

I don't see much of a correlation between AOL and your printer. You'll have to be more specific. Did this happen after AOL? Was it there before that? Are you doing anything in particular when this happens? And most importantly - do you recognize what it's printing? It could just be some old print job that must have been sent several times but never made it to the printer until just recently.

My advice - wipe AOL and get a proper internet provider. Whether it's Netscape, Netzero, dsl, cable, whatever. Just as long as you're not forced into using proprietary software for your surfing.

This or it your system could have a automatic task scheduled to test print. What kind of printer you using?

Yet another misconception.

It's strange that I'm using AOL and have no AOL software installed. It must be some kinda magic.

Of course, he's using their "security" edition for whatever reason which of course means using AOL's software 👎

Also, just incase, scan for Spyware and Viruses. 👍
