AOL's latest version is primarily Gecko based, but will use the IE
renderer on occasion (what flags this occasion is beyond me). I have no
idea whether this version is even released - or if it is what its
penetration is. All previous AOL versions are pretty heavily customised
versions of IE, despite AOL owning Netscape (and paying Mozilla coders)
for quite some time.
