Unable to connect to Battle.net

[Griselda]

AOL is my only means of connecting to the internet tho (I WANT BITWISE)

Does it have to do with me having windows xp, cause i do know that it runs differently on 98 and below?

I run Diablo on XP.

I would suspect that your problem is that you connect through AOL's network, and I've heard that they do all kinds of funky things to the connection before you get to the actual internet. I don't know, though, because I've never had AOL.
