AOL Parental Controls proxy server
Alright, it's not what it sounds like! What I would like to know is AOL's proxy server address, so I can use Firefox instead of AOL's web browser, because Firefox supports resuming downloads. Parental Controls restrict my time to 1hr. a day, so I can't download a lot of things on dialup.

I'm not trying to get around the parental controls, If I got AOL's proxy server to use through Firefox, I would still be blocked from things, but I could also download this 250+ MB file over a couple of days that AOL lets me download, but then logs me off after an hour. With the Firefox browser, I can pause it a minute or two before I'm logged off, so I can continue where I left off on the next day.

In the network connections, when I'm connected, it says that the connection "AOL Internet" in disconnected. And when I try to view the properties, it starts AOL, and brings up something about the really simple preferences like the mail, passwords, and history stuff. Nothing helpful...

Alright, I don't believe anyone is reading this anymore, but I'll post anyway.
After a while of searching, I found this website "ipchicken.com", which gives a readout of:

Name Address: cache-dtc-ae11.proxy.aol.com
Remote Port: 58169
Browser: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; AOL 9.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506)

I've tried entering the name address with the remote port as a proxy in Firefox, but though it tries for a while to load the page, it still doesn't work. Every time I refresh the page, the "ae11" part of the name address and remote port changes.

This anymore help to anyone to help me?
