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.
