Michael
Thank you for your quick response and advise without a lot of  bells
& whistles against AOL, it is appreciated very  much.
I'll take your advise and continue using my PC-cillin Internet  Security
Anti-Virus and Firewall Protection.

Well, I  for one as a tech clean infected machines almost every week that  are
running AOL's "security software", to use the term loosely. I would  not
recommend relying on their software as it simply does not do its job in  my
experience.

Subject: TSGL: Which Anti-Virus and Firewall To  Use

AOL states that my safety status is poor for the following  two  reasons:
1. Multiple anti-virus programs are installed on  your  computer.

To take full advantage of AOL's Safety and  Security Center,  provided by 
McAfee, we recommend uninstalling the  following anit-virus  products:

PC-cillin Internet Security -  Virus  Protection
Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security   2006
2. I get the same message when AOL wants me to uninstall  the  same two 
programs firewalls that I use for anti-virus to be able to   install AOL's
firewall, 
provided by McAfee.
AOL is my default but I  prefer using PC-cillin Internet  Security and Trend 
Micro PC-cillin  Internet  Security rather than use AOL's McAfee that only
loads  
when I sign in to  AOL.
I need to know if I'm doing the correct  thing by just ignoring  AOL's 
statement that my safety status is  poor.
Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,  Toni
