Pros: Free Service with full access to everything on the Net Cons: Has banners all over the screen, causing bandwidth loss
When you first hear of the Internet being free, you say to yourself "Sure, if you say so." That's the same thing that I said right before I downloaded the program. I was informed of this service by my friend. We had been going to the public...

Pros: Still almost free, POP Mail, Etc. Cons: Might be having a yard sale soon.
OK I stole the subject line from thefûçkedcompany.com from an anonymous message board.
Netzero was the very first free ISP I used, at first it was only going to be a back up to IBM.NET, then IBM got bought out by AT&T, so I kept my ibm.net...

Pros: Free Cons: I wouldn't pay for service this crappy.
I tried looking for free internet services since we were having a hard time with the bills and my business runs basically off the web and I still needed to have access to the internet. I tried NetZero FIRST. I think I used it for like 10 minutes and...

Pros: Fast, Reliable, and Easy Cons: Sometimes Busy
When the internet first came out, I bet no one thought that it would ever reach the point where it would be free! People are paying $20 or more for 56k access to the internet when they could be paying $0 for the same speed.
You might have...

Pros: Free Cons: Outlook express conflicts
I’ve just spent 3 hours dealing with NetZero. The experience was not totally negative but I am gone from their fold forever. (Bet my mandatory NetZero e-mail address (that will never be accessed) will forever be on every e-mail search engine. Oh...

Pros: Free; Stable; Strong Connection. Cons: Large Ad-Banner.
A Little About It
After signing up and a download of 4.8 MB, you can be online for free! Signing up is fairly simple, enter your NAME, ADDRESS, D.O.B. and a couple other things. Hey, it's free right?
MINIMUM SYSTEM...

Pros: FREE, mostly reliable Cons: busy at times
Being a student, i get spoiled by Ethernet connections at college, and to come home to dial-up is just scary! This summer, I figured I would try NetZero the new free internet service provider that is sweeping the nation! NetZero has made it extremely...

Pros: good service, good connection Cons: limited to 40 hr per mo./w/no charge
Several weeks ago I gave Netzero a rave review here on epinions.com, but I think I spoke to soon.
I received an email yesterday from their director of operations and he informed me that effective after the first of the year that Netzero...

Pros: Good for limited browsing if locale is right Cons: Too many drawbacks at this stage in the game
It’s all up to chance, my friends. What I am referring to is the quality of service you will get with your free ISP like Netzero. If you live in an area that has adequate servers- it will be your best friend- reliable and accessible. Have the curse of...

Pros: As good as a pay ISP (maybe better)....if you try the right one Cons: Keep looking if your good one gets bad. Check for updates.
After years of paying for the internet, I decided, with great hesitation, to try the free ISP's.
I have designed software for over 36 year and my internet connection is vital to my business.
I attacked this as an intensive,...

Pros: Free...for the first 40 hours Cons: Slow, banner you can't even minimize, difficult to connect
Like everybody else, I, too, fell for the "Free ISP" thing. At the time, I was a senior electronics sales supervisor for OfficeMax, and worked with other knowledgeable computer salespeople. After much discussion over free ISPs, I signed up for NetZero...

Pros: Free, really, no kidding Cons: Lots of unknowns, slight spammage
YES! Never will I pay for dial up service again!!! But seriously, this service supports pop email accounts. Just what you need to keep Microsoft Outlook going. It makes an easy transition from a pay service like AT&T or Sprint and the like. What...

Pros: No pressure, easy interface Cons: None, expected drawbacks of a free service
I dealt with Juno after having had enough of the AOL and MSN monsters. Juno was a pathetic free service, with whiny messages stating how terrible it was that free users were taking up most of their computer services. No kidding, really? Give it for free...

Pros: Large email capacity, unlimited email addresses, somewhat reliable connection Cons: Annoying Home Page, No longer totally free
I have been using Netzero for about 2 years now. Although I have had some problems with staying connected it has not been such a big problem for me to stop using their service. I have never used an ISP that has not disconnected me every now and then for...

Pros: Easy to get started, or used to be Cons: Just doesn't work any more, and the customer service blows
When my former ISP was sold to a big telecom conglomerate -- it had previously been wholly owned by a company with a sterling record of customer and community service -- I was worried. Sure enough, it wasn't long before my service quality went down and...
