America Online Tips from Uncle Bob
 
Uncle Bob's want you to get the best experience out of our web site. Here is a great tip for you that AOL does not want you to know.  Did you know most of you can surf the net using them as your internet provider but without have to see everything in their small screen or all the other daily garbage? And it's easy!

How it works:

All newer computers (past 4 or 5 years) have the Internet explorer browser incorporated into the operating system.  You can find this by going to your desktop and clicking on the BLUE E icon. Find this icon but do not click or open the browser yet. Icon looks something like this: 

Now login to your AOL program.  One you are logged on (you see the welcome screen) and able to surf the net with AOL, go back to your desktop and open your internet explorer browser by clicking on the blue E. Enter any www address in the browser (like www.unclebobscars.com) You should now be able to surf the net and go to any site using the browser without seeing your AOL program. 

Remember! You must sign into AOL first and then open the internet explorer or other browser. This also works for Netscape, and Opera browsers and almost any type of other browser.
