Pushing an upgrade this way is the definition of stupidity. The fact that no one cares is exemplary of the fact that you are holding a gun to your own head and asking we, your consumers, to act like idiots or you will pull the trigger.
As a twenty five year customer of AOL, my reply: go right ahead~

Haha! Yea, I remember when I was a customer of AOL (well, my mom was) when I was about 7 or 8. It sucked, we had it for like 4 years, and it never got any better. Now I'm 18, using Optimum Online, which isn't bad, but I still see that AOL is continuously pissing off their customers. Supposedly they're allowing companies to pay a fee to bypass the Junk E-Mail Filter and go straight into your Inbox (I *could* be wrong)? Complete bull in my opinion. Trying to impress the wrong customers, heh.
Anyways... seeing as how I posted this solution over ONE YEAR ago, I'm very surprised that people are still having problems with this pop-up trying to pressure you into installing. I guess AOL will never learn, right?
