Yes, sure. But noone could assure that a Class C Mask would be enough for
AOL. And the AOL-Page about that is not very helpful. If I understand it
right they have lots of CLass-C-Networks for Proxies.
And even if this would help today, we don't know that it would not change
later. We certainly do not want to end up using B-Masks and having
all users from one Provider on the same Server.

Does anyone know some exact things about AOL ?
