System Information looks different in AOL

I've just been in AOL but found this tab called System Information, but it says I'm running a P3 processor at 1234Mhz. I've actually got a Pentium M 1.6Ghz :confused: well I'm supposed to have and that's what ccleaner tells me when it's open - is this just AOL being crap or could I have a duff overclocked processor in here? It's a dell laptop btw :o

    Better still remove the AOL bloatware from your system all together!

    I've actually unticked the AOL software in msconfig startup tab but it's still loading up. I have a broadband account and use the program to access emails and other stuff but not often so am reluctant to uninstall it.

    There's an annoying logo which sits in my systray but this also seems unaffected by the msconfig box :confused:
