Chris,
Your computer is most likely running low on memory and AOL is a memory hog. Try to increase your virtual memory and then see if it still happens. Usually you would have "Let windows manage" checked off. Uncheck and specify something on the large side and see if that works. Also, if depending on your operating system, you should slow the read ahead down, this fixes the problems most of the time too. If you need specifics on how to do all of this, just email me and I will go point, by point, click by click for you......
