Why does it not surprise me that the problem only occurs when the computer is connected to/through AOL. My money says the problem is either a benefit designed to make AOL so simple that anyone can use it or is a problem created by one of those benefits.... most likely a server level security related benefit. I would check with AOL to see if there are any user settings on those types of benefits that might fix the problem. I would think that a faulty modem or other external hardware device would block ALL data, not just some. But you might check the configuration of the modem and router/filter/whatever. It could be locking down certain ports that certain data transfers use. I would not suspect any user installed security software on the computer, at least not yet, since it works fine on your access point.
