If you're using one program to check email, another to send instant messages and a third to browse the Web, there's a better way. AOL 9.5 simplifies your online life by bringing together mail, IM and a browser into one convenient package.

AOL email makes it easy to stay in touch with friends, family and business associates. You get unlimited storage, and it's a snap to add personality to emails with customized fonts, colors, stationery and signatures. As always, AOL's powerful spam controls help steer junk email out of your inbox.

With AOL 9.5, tabs on the browser let you keep several sites open without cluttering your screen. Your favorite Web sites and AOL® Search enhanced by Google™ are a click away, and you are automatically protected from known phishing sites when you browse the Web using the AOL software.

AOL 9.5 helps you stay connected to the people you care about. AIM® is built-in -- so you can see which of your buddies are online and instantly chat, share pictures and more. If you prefer not to be interrupted by IMs, make yourself invisible so others won't know you're online.

Get the latest news, check your stocks, catch up on celebrity gossip, check movie times on Moviefone, get directions from MapQuest, play free fantasy sports on Fleaflicker, listen to exclusive music, watch the TV shows you missed last night, and so much more. Save favorite place links or add a customized icon to your toolbar for one-click access whenever you need it.
