AOL 7.0

AOL has recently posted a beta version of AOL 7.0 on their ftp site under a director called "Jetsons," which has since been removed. As of October 3, this directory is open for anyone to download the AOL 7.0 software. Since AOL was kind enough to post this beta version online, we decided to review the software and post our findings. We found something quite remarkable in this.....
MasterAOL for AOL 7.0

MasterAOL for AOL 7.0 US GM

sup[z] to: adam, artem, atm, dime, infamous, nec, plex, syg, xom and countless others.

Here it is, the first masteraol (star tool) for aol7. To install just double click on the .exe file (you will need to input the path to your aol7), then copy over the master.tol file into your \america online 7.0\tool\ folder.

Once you sign on you’ll get the master menu, however it’s a really crappy one. To fix this delete 32-487 in the main.idx file using dbview (available at aol-files.com). If you can’t find dbview you could hex the main.idx and rename 32-487 to something else. Once deleted, when you load aol the master menu will be 32-2543, which is also the aol4/5/6 masteraol menu.

Credit goes to Artem for hexing the main install file and the tool file. I should mention that aol added extra security to the aol7 tools (masteraol and vpd), so be careful. I am not aware of any security issues with this, however be careful. In general aol7 is a big pile of spyware so i would stick to aol5 if possible 🙂

All files were scanned with newest version of norton antivirus updated.
