- Find local business listings with AOL Yellow Pages
- Find local deals through AOL Classifieds
- Add sites to the toolbar
In addition, users the toolbar provides users with one-click access to AIM and email. The toolbar also comes equipped with a "hottest searches" ticker showing "the latest trends and gossip." And of course, you can search the web with AOL Search.

how many toolbars can one browser take
I don't use AOL, but it just occurred to me that there are an awful lot of toolbars floating around these days. How many toolbars can one browser take? I'm already running Google and GoodSearch... time to add a third to the mix? Soon we're going to need a toolbar to manage other toolbars!
