I have Windows XP and AOL v9.1, and have a high speed internet connection. 9.1 has become quirky and is probably a bit corrupted. I use my PC mainly for email, searches, web browsing and purchases. What is the appropriate AOL upgrade version for my PC? 
When your version of AOL begins to act a bit sporadic with its performance, it probably is time for an upgrade to the latest version. Periodically, AOL updates its software to include enhancements that are designed to promote usability and better performance. Typically, Internet users can get by with older versions of AOL for a limited amount of time before they begin to experience problems.
Latest AOL Version for Windows XP
The latest version of AOL for Windows XP is 9.6. In order to complete a successful upgrade to this version, you also need to have Internet Explorer 7, 8, or 9. Your processor should be a 166 MHz Pentium-class or higher as well. Since you have a high-speed Internet connection, you are covered in that area.

A Bit about AOL Version 9.6
AOL has enhanced its latest version of software to provide an improved toolbar that is user friendly, better content-sharing capability (single-click sharing to Twitter, Facebook, IM, Lifestream, and email sites), improved browsing features (it's faster), a rotating sign-on screen canvas, and so much more. AOL has also reduced the frequency of annoying pop-up updates. Plus, they've improved the installation and download experience attached to AOL version 9.6 so that the download is fast and the installation is seamless.
All in all, AOL has designed version 9.6 to include enhancements all the way around. This latest AOL version looks like the older versions so you shouldn't have any problems adjusting to it.
With your upgrade to AOL version 9.6, you will get the latest version of Winamp and AIM. You will also have access to the latest security software, applications for your iPhone, and other features. Plus, you still have access to parental controls, a "restore session" feature, and the invisible mode. AOL has included some enhancements for a better browser experience including faster page loads, a better experience when using Flash features, and better search results.
