Does it ask for a username and password when the computer starts up? Are you having trouble installing netzero or geting it to run? download Microsoft Dial-up Networking [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: Administrator account Thursday, July 12, 2007 at 5:42 am Posted by Frank (43 messages posted) I am trying to install it from disc. It stops during the installation. I do not need a username or password when the computer starts up. I can get to a password screen by clicking close all programs and sign in as a different user, at the shutdown menu.

I visited their web site and it doesn't what its compatable with, there is no spec given.

I just looked, says windows 98 or higher. I guess that's that. I will have to think of something else now. Thanks.

The remaining free ISPs are localized by area. Check this forum for ideas: http://www.freedomlist.com/forum/index.php You want a service that will allow "DUN". It works great on Win95. That's how I connect (via free DUN ISP) when I'm not in my local Burger King using their free Wi-Fi (which will also work on Win95). "Win95 is not dead in my house."

One problem I have is that the computer is running IE4, and wouldn't do some of the things i want to so. Wireless/wi fi would be the best, and I did read the other thread on that...some of it i didn't really understand. My local mcDonalds has wifi too...that would be cool to use on my lunch break.

Do yourself a favour and get Firefox 1.5, SeaMonkey or Opera. If possible, get rid of IE4, it's integrated into your system, and makes it unstable.
