America Online Users
As good of a service as America On-line is, there are some things that may offer you a higher quality Internet experience while using it. When viewing product images, probably the most important of these is to turn off your graphics compression under the "My AOL, Preferences,WWW" option. This not only offers you a higher quality look at our site, but ALL sites that you visit. The path above may vary depending on the version of AOL you are using.

Security
As newer Internet browsers offer features to help protect consumers from insecure websites, they introduce preferences that pop up messages to the user. If you are using a newer browser such as Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Explorer, you may have it set to pop up messages for various reasons such as flipping back and forth from pages that are locked and those that are not - which is a normal operation for any shopping site. We incorporate encrypted technology to protect your ordering information. When using Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Explorer, you will notice the LOCK symbol showing LOCKED when you enter an ordering page or pages that contain personal information. Since there is no need, we do not encrypt our catalog in order to offer you more speed when viewing our site. We DO lock your private purchasing information and the pages that contain that information. If you rather not see the pop-up notices, check your browser's settings or preferences where you can select when to view pop-up notices.
