I have got to tell you that inspite of a perfunctory support for osx; the guys @ AOL did a very decent job with their latest upgrade. Takes me 20 minutes to download the software under os 9.2 connection. Install the soft ware in osx ( a must ) and up and running without any more crashes so far. The installation even automatically trasfer all you peferences unlike prvious upgrades where you have to move the folder to the new version. Good job you guys @ AOL. You are also the first to have direct connection under osx.

EarthLink has had software out for awhile. Granted it's not needed for dialing in, since you can always use OS X's built in dialer, but the support has been there. I'm not sure what you mean by direct connection.

I find the OS X version a lot slower than classic. They did a nice job though.
