Another example of AOL taking over...
I was reading a recent issue of Info World magazine and found a very interesting note regarding AOL. Apparently, the current release of Winamp (2.80) will add free.aol.com to the Trusted-Zone on Internet Explorer. Though this (supposedly) has neglible effects, it does show that AOL can take over your computer even if you've never installed AOL. NOTE: This only occurs if you install Winamp with the "AOL Icon" option selected, which is selected by default.
For a softcopy of the article in question, click here and scroll down to "Security concerns".
