Upgrade AOL Mail by Accessing it With Windows Live Mail

If you are facing any issue regarding AOL with your internet  service provider , you can  still use your email account with any internet connection.. This is especially useful if you have been using the account for work or have a number of personal contacts that know you through your older username or address. Like Hotmail and Yahoo, you can now use your American Online email account online from any computer connected to the internet, but you can also add your AOL email to even more convenient desktop programs like Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail.
