Re: Free Internet... ?
I thought that was the service, but they seem to want me to download their software - and only give me choices for Windows 98/95 and Mac. I also remember seeing a different webpage for the service (not blue and white), which talked specifically about linux.
Anyway, I didn't want to go on with the download (14MB), but I will if it is necessary to get the username and password and DNS info and all that. What should I do?
