He is a long-time member of this list and a previous member of the HC

As I understand these things, AOL accounts can be compromised outside
of the user's control. The malware invades through AOL itself somehow,
not via the user's machine. If that's what is happening here, the user
won't have any way to stop it, though he should report it to AOL.
I feel very sorry for the chap. Perhaps the best advice one can offer
him is to change to another e-mail provider, although we all know the
administrative headaches that causes.
It would also suggest that there is something rotten in AOL's setup.
