OK. I knew this was going to happen soon, so I've been looking around for another
DOS-friendly free ISP and the only two I can come up with are 1 Nation Online and
Dialfree.
The good thing about Dialfree is that it doesn't require software downloads and such.
You just sign up for service and plug in their settings. The bad thing about Dialfree
is that if you don't fill out one survey each month, you'll be charged $19.95 for
service for that month.
Although 1 Nation Online requires a software download, someone on this list mentioned
a way to use the service with Arachne once you sign up for it (presumeably using a
Windows machine). If someone will re-post those instructions, I will try them myself.
If it works, I'll post the instructions on our DOS page at
http://www.accessmasters.com/dos.html.
If anyone is interested in more information on either of these services, I've got them
on our Master Free Zone page at http://accessmasters.com/freenet.htm .

Subject: Freewwweb.com bit the dust
Hi All,
Bad news, I just "logged on" to Freewwweb.com, sort
of!!!! Actually, the CHAP finally worked again after about
24 hours with "CHAP failed" messages. But, instead of getting
the snap.com home page a new page introducing Juno.com
popped up. So, Freewwweb.com DOS access is history, folks!
