There are some free internet providers out there, like netzero. But be aware that they are very limited on how much time that you can use them for free each month. You may have long enough to check your email, but not much more. There are a lot of low cost alternatives though. NetZero is one, Juno, and People PC, coppernet, etc. I'm sure that there are others out there. Check in with your local computer shop, they will know what's available in your area. You're generally going to have to pay around $10 for anything with enough hours to do you much good.

FYI, I checked out the "Free Internet Access " site Freeatlast.com and I got an"error message".

If you google "free internet access providers", it shows that as of now, Sept. 2008, Net Zero is about the only internet provider that offers free access in Sarasota, FL.

Most public libraries have free internet access. Also, there are many restaurants and bars that offer free WiFi.

You can get fee email accounts with many different sites like yahoo, hotmail, etc.

The main reason why I don't like dial-up internet access is because it ties up my telephone line whereas DSL provided by your telephone company allows you to use your land line phone and still use the internet at the same time.

At one time I had to have a second phone line installed just for my computer, so I could still receive important phone calls.
