Ways Around Communist Network Blocks on IM Apps

For AOL IM:   Under connection properties change server from login.oscar.aol.com to one of the IP addresses listed below.  Also try to change the port from 5190 to 13, 20, 21, 80, 443.  Use the Connection button to allow AOL IM to search for open ports, too.

You will have to keep checking for changes.  For instance, about twice a year AOL changes their IP addresses.
