Hehehehe, yep AOL will effect his settings. Supposedly I did find out that in version 7.0 you cannot change MTU, so that's probably the problem, so the only thing to do is make RWIN a multiple of MSS (1422).

We know, but AOL puts all kinds of BS adapters on your pc that effect your settings. If you have Verizon you REALLY ought to remove AOL it is nothing but crap.

That's not true. I have AOL 7.0 and Verizon DSL via WinXPPPoE connection. When I installed AOL, my MTU was set back to 1400. I had to manually edit it to 1480 in the registry. Can't go any higher.. but I don't need to anyway. My speeds are fine. But my MTU was adjustable.
