The only things that i am really familiar with on that list, is i.e. 6, realplayer and AOL..

we all know why i.e. sucks

i prefer to use winamp, and windows media player before i use real player.. but more so winamp because it plays .rm files..

but aol sucks becaue they charge you $20 for dial-up..

at least in nyc you can get that for free by using metconnect.. all you need is a phone line and a good local service plan (i reccommend Verizon because it is only 5 cents for each local call, and you can talk as long as you want, and it will still be 5 cents..) and you are set..

not only that AOL gives it's users the same, or a similar ip address.. so lets say that vanman was on an AOL account, and since you know that he was banned, and that we ban by ip ranges, then that means that anyone ele who has an AOL Account would not be able to see the forum, or even register an account.. because their ip has automatically been banned..

in addition to that AOL puts spyware on your computer.. and it is so hard to get rid of it.
