AOL OpenRide was an Internet application suite made by AOL that combined e-mail, instant-messaging, a web browser and a media player in one window. Anyone could download it for free, but to make maximum use of the software you needed to sign in with an AOL or AIM screenname.

Much like other smart ideas that AOL had, this AOL software was "sunsetted" (no further development) after an increasing number of problems came up, and the fact that this software didn't hit the market too well. AOL intends to re-hype all this by making a familiar "AOL 9.0" looking version in their next version codenamed "Helix."

This unofficial download is provided to your for free, not by AOL, but by an avid user of it. You could check AOL Help, but other than that you're shit out of luck. Send your regards to AOL at overallsupport@aol.com.
