No. This question is asked way to often. It won't work because AOL won't work wihout it's crappy browser software, which obviously can't be installed onto your GC. The only way you can get it to work is by hooking up your GCN to your PC through another ethernet card, and setting up your computer to share internet connections with your GCN, which is rather quite technical and not something I care to recommend because there's a good chance of having difficulty getting it to work.

Hmm. I have set up AOL with ICS before, but I have not used it with a GameCube. Thus, I know AOL works with ICS, but I cannot personally verify that PSO works with AOL ICS, although theoretically, it should work just fine. The only challenge in determining whether your ICS is working or not is testing it out... and without connecting a second computer to the ICS server, there's no way for you to test it.

When I originally set up AOL with ICS, I had to set the second AOL dial-up adapter as the connection being shared. You may want to try this, alternatively. Also, some people on the PSOW forums have said that they did successfully get PSO to work with AOL via ICS. By all means, it should be possible.
