What do you want to do? Turn off the auto add feature? If yes and you are using AOL Webmail (http://webmail.aol.com), go to "Settings", "Compose" and uncheck "

Automatically add email addresses to Contacts"

If you are using AOL Webmail, go to "Settings", "Compose" and uncheck " Automatically add email addresses to Contacts"

If you are using AOL 9.1, go to your Addressbook, click on the dropdown "Addressbook Options", select "Address Book Settings" and uncheck the option there

If you Are using AOL Desktop (10.0) open Mail, Click on "Settings", select "General", select "Writing & Sending", uncheck "When I send mail top people, automatically add their e-mail addresses to my Address Book"
