  • if AOL was smart they'd advertise to senior citizens. Since they seem to have a difficult time understanding computers.

  • u have no idea why some ppl still have aol....most of the aol clients are so stupid...u have no clue...they don't know what the 'start' button is..or where it is...or they don't make a diff between the windows and aol...if the comp crashes it's all about aol...man..u ppl know only how to judge something without knowing...before u point fingers make sure ur hands are clean...remember that...

  • You did not mention the outrageous AOL charges in the early days - In 1997 I was paying, I think, 5 GBP per hour online for a 14k connection!!! So it cost me 5 pounds to loan in 1 email. Good riddance AOL!

  • AOL IS SUCH SHIT BLOATWARE THAT RUINED MY MOTHERS COMPUTER AND MY LAPTOP!!!! THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE!!!!!!

  • @TheWallvideo

    Sometimes its not Aol, its the usage!!

    

  • Has nothing to do with "How to Cancel AOL".

  • i like safari, no i dont have a mac

  • I liked getting those AOL floppy disks in the mail, I would format and erase them and use them for saving files..

  • 1:29

    lol

  • AOL's only remaining use is its chat rooms and message service, which are in many ways nicer through the software rather than through AIM and chat.aim.com ... It uses far too much space on my computer just to run, and they have done nothing to improve it. Not only that, but I am afraid of what would happen if they did try to improve it. The news is nice, if it didn't take so long to load..

  • Google Chrome FTW!

  • BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH

  • u mother fucker -.- talk about how to cancel the dammn thing if thats whats on the title asshole -.-

  • So how do I cancel?!

  • wtf CHANGE THE DAMN TITLE has nothing to do with canceling anything!

  • i just want to delete my account on aol!!!!!!

  • well this has certainly cured my insomnia.....zzzzzzzzzz

  • trumpet winsock.. netscape navigator.. 90's internet surfing at its best

  • fuck man, has anyone managed to listen to this the whole way through?

  • AOL as you put it seems greedy.

  • lol i have a aol disc!!! :D

  • The only good thing IE is good for is downloading firefox and updating stuff on your system.

  • AOL SLOWS YOUR WHOLE COMPUTER DOWN, its a pc of crap

  • I like AOL. But I do use Safari, Firefox, Chrome, and IE. AOL doesn't charge people anymore and they have a new browser called AOL Desktop which is a good browser. AOL is waaaaaaaaaaay the best if you use dial-up. Unfortunately, America Online ran into a few problems and that's why it isn't the most famous browser in America anymore. AOL is good software, though they can be a bit protective.

  • pixy is dreaming...

  • uni?!?!!?!?!?! no way im from iowa nigga!!!!

  • dial up?

  • Mozilla happened to Netscape. Sure Netscape is around today, (or a newer version of it) but I bet quite a few Mozilla Firefox users didn't know that Firefox is built on the original Netscape model.

  • boring twat, get to the point or shut the fuck up

  • nothing about canceling AOL. You suck

  • you can claim a lost or stolen card, or ask the bank to stop the automated payment for you AOl account in order to ultimatley cancel. My mom tried to cancel her account and she gave up because the guy kept coming up with general questions. LOL those cock suckers.

  • shut up please!

  • I bet that room smells like hard-boiled eggs. I looks like it smells like hard-boiled eggs.

  • hey guys..how's this for a joke on AOL. I signed up AOL one time after my computer crashed. once i got it i used it to re download my (then-isp) Juno software. then i called and told AO-HELL to cancel me out and i told them why! word for word "because i just used you guys to download my JUNO internet program"!!!

  • OMG, you are boring as hell. All you do is ramble.

  • The people at Aol are assholes. It took me 5 people and 25 minutes to cancel my useless acct. The next month i got a bill for 24.18 on my cc statement. I had to threaten to call my lawyer for them to leave me the fuck alone

  • i have AOL, its useless, I have to call customer service every week, got some fucking retards at customer service. i told them to cancel on next friday. I am supposed to have 20mb internet, I was getting 8mb and now im getting 2mb cuz i cancelled. IM getting sky now. I have had aol for 9 years, worst internet ever!!!!

  • Interesting history there.

    Wasn't that "Why to cancel AOL," though?

  • We are not making the customers to accept things that they do not want. Like spywares and other things. All in all, it's their choice. So the things that you are trying to prove are not so appropriate.

  • AOL SUCKS!

  • So how exactly was this a vid on how to cancel AOL ?? Other than don't get it in the first place :P

  • This doesn't, lol. Pirillo is just trying to get air time.

  • lol well he's doing well but in all fairness he wasted 6 mins of my life :P

  • I was just thinking of your dog not being there then it makes noises seconds after

  • this guy's cool

  • I dont look at IE as a internet browser. I look at it as a tool to download firefox and then never even click on again

  • ie is great because ofd the tabs option and import/export favorites (I know aol can do that but aol sucks) but other than those perks, ie is starting to suck, especially with youtube.

  • Wow, exactly right. Although I changed for FF to Chrome

  • @KenUchiha6 .............. or google chrome

  • @KenUchiha6 what about Chrome or opera? they dont have as many add ons but you hate them because they are small, and you say " lol little girls, I as horny", I dude, mean this, has anyone?

  • @porkyminch01 I really like Opera! 

  • @TheAngryAmericanwon I use Opera to I like it's irc, and some themes for it, But I use firefox to download all those flash video p0rnz on astounding resolution.

  • @KenUchiha6 LAMO!! Best comment E-V-E-R!!  And sooooooooo true. LOLOLOL

  • Talk about AOL you moron!

  • AOHELLLLLL

  • AOL is shit now because of the shit helpline assholes who know fuck all other than what it says on the paper in front of them.after and only if you get passed them you then get the phone hung up on you. FUCK AOL im leaving the shit.

  • i was in a summer camp in UNI!!! go pathers!! :B

  • I liked Aol I used to play frisbee with the CD's with my brothers :D

  • AOL SUCKS ASS!!!!!!

  • haha go cats!!!!

  • AOL a beast ???

  • oh man, I used to have so many AOL discs!

    They made good coasters and frisbee's. Never used a one, thank god.

  • aol is a nightmare but video title doesnt match the subject

  • AOL was good in the old days but its kinda old now.

    most people use firefox.

  • dude

  • please die

  • WTF GET TO DA DAMM POINTTTT

  • If it boring then why do u watch this his video. I thought it was kinda interesting

  • I found the video interesting too, especially since I remember the time when AOL was the internet to me. The problem is that, the title of this video is "How to Cancel AOL," and he simply talks about it.

  • Dude that's what I'm also saying.

  • AOL SUCKS!!!!

  • Watching Paint dry or listening to this thing that has nothing to do with canceling anything... Paint wins.

  • BORING BORING BORING SO ON

  • you are super fucking boring, jesus, why dont u try to explain this shit in such a not so BORING way

  • My opinion is that you're boring.

  • i remember starting up aol wolud take FORWEVER and durring that there was that nice music GUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA DLEEEEEENNN NEEE NAA NEE NE EH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    good ol' aol im using Fire Fox nao =]

  • dells explode asoon as u get em out of the box and i personally would never reccomend Aol.. and jeez liven it up a bit m8 if ur trying to do some kinda vlog thing.. cant believe i watched up untill half way through

  • This is very boring.

  • You are very boring....

  • fuck dell and fuck aol...truly the worst companies related to a computer

  • ur a mac huh

  • no im windows all the way i prefer gate way or anyother manufacturer then dell

    its not the OS its dell lol

  • lol the dog

  • A-boo

  • is this some kind of virus?

  • AOL sucks!

  • fuck aol

  • lol wut

  • dude u named this video how to cancle aol not how to jabber on about the internet about 6mins... if i wanted to hear about that there would be a 1min video saying use plug in ur compter to the internet... use IE for PC... safari for mac... and so on... and that would be it... duuur... btw whats with the star treck lights above ur pc... O.O

  • SNOOORRREEEEE

  • fail whatever he was trying to impart

  • ...put me to sleep too.

  • AOL fucked my Windows 98 up!!!!! ;______;

  • So my question is... "How do you cancel AOL?" After all that is the title of this video. Just kidding, I don't even use AOL because it sucks. Just wondering why it's called, 'How to Cancel AOL'

  • you LOOK and sound like JJ abrams LoL

  • Dude, stop with the go panthers thing. It's getting real old.

  • It would be an interesting sight to see chris here stoned off some really really high grade pot. that big brain of his would certainly experience SYntAx ErrOrs.

  • I use AOL as an ISP on a Mac, and have tried the AOL Desktop browser, but it's redundant. Safari, FF, Flock etc are all better. AOL DT didn't take over my Mac, and was easy to uninstall though. As an ISP (in the UK) they are OK until you need tech support. They do their damndest to keep you on the phone - 30 mins later it turns out the problem is theirs! A shame cos support used to be a point in their favour.

  • HaloLvl43Legit -- Sorry m8, I fell asleep at about 2 mins ..

  • a wile ago I heard this claim that AOL was back and better than everything out there. so I downloaded AOL desktop and it sucks ass. I won't give it the kid gloves treatment like I did when chrome came out. no AOL should know how to make a functional browser that doesn't make you want to tear your hair out but they just never have.

  • Ok I watched 0:42 seconds of this and I didn't read "my life story" as the title so I'm just going to stop, if anyone has the patience to watch this all the way through reply to me on this comment and tell me when it get relevent, thank you.

  • what a fktard

  • anyone else think this idiot looks like Rick Moranis lol

  • ...fag

  • god this video sucks ass, people started to realize that if i get online with my cable connection or DSL why do we want to listen to this SHIT!

  • blah blah, blah blah, blah blah, blah blah,

    ENOUGH Already!!! OMG!

    He must be just listening to himself!

    ackkkkk!!

  • Jesus get to the point Dipshit!

  • This guy must still owns AOL stock.

  • Holy crap ... glad I skipped ahead to the end to realize this guy is rambling on about abunch of crap that has nothing to do with the title of this bogus vid.

    The little bit I did hear simply irritated me. Didn't need the nerdy history lesson, or should I say his take on it. AOL has NEVER been necessary goof ball. I used the free trial ONCE long after I had already been on the web for years. Unistalled it once the Free Trial was over cause it was too invasive.AOL did nothing but make money

  • I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought he was totally crazy by about 30 seconds in.................THAT'S 30 seconds of my life I'll never get back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i didn't make it to the aol cancel part ... he just rambled on an on but not about canceling aol .. i stayed until 4:45 with no mention of canceling aol

  • because of that Go panthers gay pout i gave you one star , twice and went back to give you a third

  • lol "GO PANTHERS"

  • A true nerd stays true to his word.. this guy is just an arrogant shithead..

    To cancel fucking Aol, pick up the phone call aol declare cancel.. yell and anger until they get the message.. thats how you cancel..

  • dovidox: You only have yourself to blame. You could've just pressed stop on the video and move on.

  • I've got to sort of agree with dovidox. The title of the video is wrong. He really does need to change it.

  • reminds me of that science guy on the simpsons. jesus dude. quit babbling and stick to the title

  • i get banned by his millions of mods evertime i go in his room

  • oh dear...bit long winded mate. Or boring...not really interested in university of north western iowa and its computer/internet capabilities....oh forget it. jeez.

  • ugh, go outside.

  • Amen! LMAO.

  • Thius is why I unsubscribed to this dillweed's 'lockergnome - we know everything' mailing list. I remember when his site came online... and he was less arrogant.

    Hey Chris... get a life. Go find a woman who thinks rambling conversations are sexy.

    You never...not once.. came close to fulfilling what your video said...and for that... I hope you lose your Internet connection and all your RAM fails.

  • LMAOLO

  • jeez what a retard...

  • Argh! You beat me to it. But, yeah, he's a major 'tard.

  • POINDEXTER!

  • GET LAID NERD!

  • I subscribed because you're a prat

  • you told us everything but how to cancel aol...lol

    I was able to get rid of their software completely many times. laptop and PC. But when I use them I get a lot of interference with pages I want to see, I get way more spyware and its slow.

    I dont use IE anymore either for the same reason, it blocks page after page that firefox allows...easy choice.

  • does this guy just sit in his booth online all day every day?

  • prob...he prob jerks it all day too

  • lol at "those aol discs were everywhere",they were!!..i used to quality cheak the print on the cover for my old work back in the late 90s,iv seen more aol discs than anyone...EVER!!!

  • i work for aol and it's true the fucking soft is unfucking bealiveble you just can't get rid of it..... for firefox or IE or to work yo have to format you pc...

  • It can really suck

  • That's why AOL Brasil declared insolvent two years ago.

  • Between the ages of 14-18, AOL provided me with the majority of my 3.5 floppies. Atleast a couple a week in the mail. At a $1 per disk at the time, I saved some major money. Thank you AOL!

  • I wouldn't be shocked to find out that AOL is ran by Scientology. lol

  • haven't thought about that XD

  • i used to draw on the free aol cds that came into the mail. then i would cut them up and throw them out. i did have aol like 4 years ago but then i got dsl and i was soo happy! aol always froze on me and it was such slow dial up!

  • ...and then he goes back to surfing porn. LOL!

  • i like aol when i was like 5.. pecaulse it had the 3 trinagles from like zelda and i would open it and try to play zelda.. But 5 year olds cant read

  • My old AOL disks are still pinned on the wall in my office.

  • Is that the guy that use to be on Tech TV?

  • I would take the AOL disks from a local block buster store a few years ago and throw them around the parking lot until they smashed to pieces :)

  • I always got a new version in the mail for some reason, like 9.0 and stuff

    I use to just snap them in my hands and throw them away, or ride my golfcart, let my brother drive, I sit on the back and grind it until it tore through the disc and hurt me hand, and let it go

  • There's a "northern" Iowa?? That's like saying I live in southwest Rhode Island! haha Frigen state is big as Orange County.

  • you are so boring

  • ! ! ! ! ! N E R D ! ! ! ! !

    :P

  • I'm loving the tix clocks above the monitors hehehe I want

  • i listened to this thing hoping to figure out how to delete aol. instead i got a nerd talking unceasingly about shit i didnt care about. thanks for that 6 minutes and odd secounds of crap i didnt care about.

  • me too.

  • Amen.

  • Well it is refreshing to finally hear someone defend the early years of AOL and give it props for what it has accomplished. Don't get me wrong though - although AOL H.Q. was practically next door to me I hold no love for them. What they became in the end was nothing shy of despicably egregious. Having said that, there still can be no doubt that they single handedly exploded the internet evolution into what it has become today.

  • It was also a vital service to the general populace that didn't understand all of the intricacies of establishing a network connection and browsers and email clients. It was just a different time, a different age. Not everyone (think of your grandparents) was so tech savvy in the mid 1990s. In fact most people weren't.

    Nevertheless it is sad what they descended into. Very sad.

  • my correction.. he is

  • He looks very much like that dude who did that airplane instruction video.. lol its on youtube somewhere its dead funny..

  • Change the name of this video to "opinions of a blathering wind bag who can't get to the point of the video's title" instead of dressing it up as something helpful.

  • I cancelled AOL and they continued to bill me. AOL is staffed by losers.

  • This guys brain is 'dial up' Thank god I have broadband running in my head

  • I remember back in the dial up days when all there was were busy signles for HOURS!

  • AOL is fucking slow.

    firefox is better,trust me,it's better.i'm still stuck with AOL UK,grrr....

  • That's oxymoronic...AOL UK? Seriously...aol should go die. Everyone must cancel their accounts!

  • Well,at least the antispy software is reliable.

    I've heard rumors they use your bandwidth for advertising o_O.

  • Even though it's free now?

  • Trust me, it's not worth it. I hate AOL so much that I'd pay them NOT to send me those free discs in the mail.

  • Dude, good stuff in your video...very long winded, but your norther iowa bit was a good laugh, and i agree with everyone...AOL sucks a fat one.

    Keep makin videos of random nonsense, because (and im serious) some people enjoy it (to the extent that we can at 9:30 AM). Good video (im not being sarcastic [for real]).

  • But they DO make good drink coasters.

  • AOL----sucks horribly...

  • lol, my friend Cody's mom used to get many many AOL CD's and she kept using them then cancelling them when the free trial ended then using the next CD, thus getting free internet access! lol

  • which is why i use AIM( free aol service, easy to cancel),and firefox for my browser.
