NVDA currently does not expose virtual buffer controls with AOL dialogs, such as the Startup Settings Dialog, or the Sign On Welcome Screen.
Also, if signed out of AOL, the menubar works as expected when pressing the alt key, focusing you to the first item, being File menu. However while inside AOL if logged in, pressing the alt key will take quite a bit of time speaking the first item, if at all.
Sometimes, it won't even do that!
Finally, pressing alt-f4 doesn't close the program. It instead takes you to the "services" menu, however you don't know that, until you press the escape key, where then the menu bar is readable.
A log will be attached to this ticket, demonstrationing these problems.

I changed the component combo box from virtual buffer to Display Model, as I think its more of the display hooks not being seen by the AOL 9.6 program.

And here, is the download page to AOL 9.6, for both the beta tester, and for the Gold Master Additions:

I noticed that no result was ever found for this particular ticket, when I used an older account on here.
The last time I tried AOL 9.6 was with NVDA 2011.2, and the same result occurred. I have not tried it with NVDA 2011.3, as of yet.
I wish I knew what kind of controls that AOL is using for their settings screens, such as the one for changing the program's sounds. They are not unknown controls, although hearing NVDA keep saying the word "Pain" after hearing a controls label, or just hearing the label and not being able to know in advance what the actual control is, is a bit worrisome.

Any Online Americans have experience with the latest version? If not we can probably close this as outdated.

Closing for now. Please start a new issue for the most recent version of this software if results are still unsatisfactory.
