You cannot use schedules to update subscriptions when America Online is
your Internet service provider (ISP).
CAUSE
To use schedules for subscription updates, you must use Microsoft Dial-Up
Networking as your dialer to establish a connection to your ISP. America
Online uses a proprietary dialer.
RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, manually update your subscriptions. To do so,
follow these steps:
- Connect to America Online.
- In Internet Explorer, click Update All Subscriptions on the Favorites
menu.
NOTE: If you do not want to update all of your subscriptions, click Manage
Subscriptions on the Favorites menu, right-click the subscription you want
to update, and then click Update Now.
