AOL Sued -- 1:47 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

CNN is reporting that a lawsuit for 8 billion has been filed against AOL The complaint? Basically that AOL 5.0's installation program is doing its best Microsoft impersonation and taking over your computer's Internet services, rendering other ISP's software or programs with online features (like Quicken) unusable. Thanks Shugashack.

The Master comments: Lemme guess. Class-action lawsuit. Lawyer walking with 5 or 6 billion while everyone else gets $0.59. I'm gonna go steam now. GRRRRRRRRRR
