Any free and easy way to convert the .pfc file from AIL to IE7?

Ha-ha-ha-ha. AOL commited their lives to making it hard to change over. I had over 300 bookmarks that I ended up doing by copy & paste. Took days. I believe FP's suggestion is actually the only real option, but it's been years since I tried.

Yeah, the bastards even prevented you from printing your address book in versions of AOL after 9.0, although you can always install 9.0 to get a printout. Worst case you could print it to a text file and then make a .CSV file out of it which most email clients and services will import.

Good to hear. It's a shame that it didn't exist back 6 years ago when I switched.
