If you do have the older version of AOL, try copying the organize file from
the older version to the newer version. You can go through either My
Computer or Windows Explorer to the AOL section of your hard drive and find
this file. It contains all the settings-your address book, favorites, etc.-
for all the screen names that use that computer.

When I upgraded (using an AOL cd) from 6.0 to 7.0 the upgrade program asked
if I wanted to save my settings and placed a copy of the old organize file on
my desktop. It's not a bad idea to keep a copy of this file--either on
floppy discs, cd, or elsewhere in your computer just in case you have a
problem with AOL.
