I too will bve getting rid of AOL after several years of establishing a research and business presence there. He had the nerve to return the cell phone to me after smashing it to pieces, claiming to have found it on my doorstep. The intangible factor is the loss of trust in AOL and their ability to provide privacy and security for their members. No matter how you look at it they are either failing or refusing to do anything about the problem which, in our case, lies in their easily hacked Email system. We have been in touch with AOL about Tom's report and are awaiting a response from them.
Most hacks are still the result of sloppy password usage by users.
