OK those of you that are using a free ISP like Netzero, how do you like it?
Free internet sounds great but there has to be a catch, otherwise nobody would be paying for it.

 

Try Juno internet its free too! They have 2 different services free & $10.00 a month. I have the free one. Then I have bring your own sign on acess with AOL thats $9.95 a month for 5.0 service. This is the way to go for good cheap internet service,IMOA. You may want to try it. Good luck!!!! Lariat#1

I am using NetZero right now and it works great. All you have is a ZeroPort toolbar on the top that measures less than an inch on my 17" monitor with my display setting at 1024x768. I was using AOL but it was so slow and would lock up when pulling up e-mail. NetZero connects at 48,000 in Orlando. I have also used WorldSpy and there is no toolbar to get in the way, just a page of ads in IE when it first loads then you can go anywhere. The only drawback is that it connects a little slower.

Go to NetZero's page, download it and try it out. I tried about three or four then cancelled AOL. I moved my web page to Yahoo Geocities and I cannot complain about either one. How could I? I am saving $21.95 a month!!! I still use AOL Instant Messenger and that is the only AOL item that I really used anyways. Hope this info. helps.

No more dialup for me pretty soon. Say good bye to AOL and hello to Comcast @ home.

 

I tried http://www.freei.net/url.php?url=software.php but I couldn't figure out how to brows/surf with it? It's probably just me. I'm not very savy with this stuff

 

i use Freei.net. A friend of mine from Highschool works for them in Federalway,WA. He informed me about it. It comes in handy when we travel. Always have Internet access.

I just got juno free email and internet at home and dropped my $20.00/month isp. I was connecting at 48,000 now I connect at 50,000. After a couple hours online the little ad bar doesn't bother you anymore.

I use Freei.net at work. Better and faster than Mindspring/Earthlink. Connects at 50k+ everytime. Works great with Netscape but emailing out is pain with webmail.
I got Telocity DSL at home so I'm spoiled.

Since the topic of free ISPs has come up again here is a list of a bunch of them and a comparison chart http://freeinternetaccess.home.att.n...omparison.html

 

Free internet is one thing and freedom is another. I prefer not to have those tool and ads bars in the screen. I tried a couple of those free internet services but I will stick to what I have now.

My ISP is BigPlanet, works great and I can make money at the same time.

Another thing I've noticed is ALL the free ISPs in my area all use the same access #'s.
Kinda makes you wonder if they are all owned by thesame company?
