If your Internet Service Provider is AOL or Netcom or another provider that doesn't offer full Internet access, you won't be able to use Communicator with your account. If you want, you can use Account Setup to create an account with another provider that does offer full Internet access (see the "I want to create a new Internet account" option, above). After you've switched to a new service provider, be sure to call your old service provider and tell them you want to cancel your account.
