Vicki found the following information at the WowBB support forum. It may be useful to those who are having trouble getting into the system. I still don't know why AOL users who have been getting everywhere with no problem are suddenly having problems. It may have something to do with AOL making some recent changes? Anyway, the following information may help.
We have seen this problem with alot of AOL users.
The problem happens because AOL uses proxy servers and normal sessions tend to not work the same. You can usually resolve the problem by going to:
Deleting cookies and temporary internet files in your browser settings.
Then...
AOL: settings -> essentials -> internet options -> privacy
(drag the bar to the bottom to where it says accept all cookies).
For some reason, some computers still will not work, so the final solution is
Internet Explorer Tools -> Internet Options -> Privacy -> Edit ->
then add your sitename and select Allow, then OK.
I know you prob wanted a workaround on your side, but honestly I dont think there is one, this will work 99% of the time but needs to be done at the client side.
I normally would never post telling to "clean cookies" as its usually the first thing people do, but really with AOL it works, expecially adding the site name.
