some ludicrous comments made by people who are themselves clueless. It is a parental control file as already pointed out.

Aol seems to have always been one giant virus in its self. Someone said it's something to do with parental control, but I have no children and don't even have that setup on Aol.

It may both be needed for AOL and slow my laptop down. So if I want to toss it, how can I as long as I use AOL. Any other good info on this??

For AOL to be more than a Internet provider, who knows what's installed on your hard drive?

If you deleted it, AOL won't start.

Die datei ist nur beim Start von AOL von Bedeutung, da AOL ansonsten nicht startet (Fehlermeldung dass diese Datei fehlt). Während des laufenden Betriebes kann man sie aber getrost umbenennen bzw. löschen. AOL läuft weiterhin und auch stabil.

I quarantined the annoying Lexpps.exe and turned AOL on. Only after I turned on AOL did I see this on Security Task Manager. I turned AOL off and this hasn't left. Does it monitor your keyboard inputs only during the AOL sessions or CONSTANTLY? This could be a big problem.
