Pros: No banner ads, good speed, help when it is needed.
Cons: Outlook Express was a little tricky to set up, at first. Usage is only 100 hours per month.
As I am on a fixed income, I have to do many things to decrease my cash flow. Finding a free internet access program was on the top of my list. I was limited on the amount of hours I could be on the internet from my ISP to 150 hours per month at...

Pros: none if you expect a free ISP, otherwise you might fancy it
Cons: must pay now, unstable conditions
Love affairs are kept going by the presence of seven active elements that create the chemistry necessary for them, and for me, the love affair I’ve had for the past six months or so with the ISP, WorldShare.net, has gone stagnant or sour even, all of a...

Pros: free and easy
Cons: none
This is the ISP for you. It is easy to install and there are no annoying banners. This is especially good for those who have small monitors.
If you know someone who doesn't want a server like AOL. They just want to surf the web and receive...

Pros: no download needed, reliable access, options to pay or not pay for unlimited access
Cons: haven't used the ShareBar they offer soon
I finally received the major announcement they promised a few weeks ago about how they are going to change. They had promised their dial-up service would remain free and reliably fast with unlimited access. That, I have found out, will happen only if I...

Pros: no more surveys, inexpensive and no banners
Cons: not free for new members
I learned from a friend who went to sign up with Worldshare, that it will cost him $15 a year and they wanted his credit card number. This is disappointing to me, but there will still be no banners and they have quite a home page. One of their...

Pros: User friendly homepage, fast connection
Cons: No longer FREE ;-(
I was looking for a free ISP, so I read several of the reviews here on Epinions for an ISP that was rated at the top. I was impressed with most of the reviews written about Worldshare, so I decided to try it.
I joined Worldshare about four...

Pros: Decent service
Cons: Free access coming to a screeching halt
Having been a member of Worldshare from it's infancy, the year has brought around many changes. Starting with totally free internet access, then "progressing" to a sharebar, and now hopefully, the final stage of their metamorphosis, the novel...

Pros: Great Free Service No line drops or bad connections
Cons: Customizes Browser background
Worldshare.net, This is the best free ISP I have seen to date! PLUS NO ADS!!! I rate them VERY highly so far. There have been NO glitches and installation and setup is VERY simple. FREE, I love that. Even though I use a DSL connection at home, I use...

Pros: reliable, free with little community service, no banners
Cons: can be slow to connect at heavy-use times
I had an email this morning from lap0530 about his update of Worldshare.net and when I tried logging into their website as a member, I couldn't. So I called their toll-free number and after a little wait, I talked with a very helpful and friendly...

Pros: Free dial-up, Donate to charity, Lots of local access
Cons: Slow connection, Browser and dial-up modifications
Update: Following the Internet Bust, Worldshare.net no longer offers free internet access. Their plans now range from $9.95 to $15.95 per month for 75 hour to unlimited dial-up access and 1 to 5 POP3 email boxes. My original review is below.

Pros: No banners to view, donates to charity
Cons: survey once a month to fill out
Worldshare is my 6th attempt at free access. Currently all I use are free internet providers and haven't paid for access in about 6 months now.
What I like about worldshare is that you don't have a banner on your screen that displays...

Pros: A reliable, cheap connection.
Cons: No tech support.
[Oopsie.
Yet another free ISP sells out.
WorldShare is now not much different than any other paid ISP. I leave my old review here for historical reasons, and so I can lower WorldShare's epinions score. They still claim to be...

Pros: free, no disconnects or busy signals
Cons: survey, possible payment of $10 up front?
I have been the biggest proponent of FreeWWWeb since I've tried it last October. But lately I have been having some major problems with them. Sometimes the lines are busy, sometimes they don't pick up at all, so I decided to try some others. So I saw...

Pros: POP3 mail, clean uninstall
Cons: Inconsistent install/uninstall documentation, ill-behaved microportal program, inconsistent connection quality
UPDATE ** I was notified by WorldShare on 10/14/00 that they would be discontinuing their "free" option (ad-banner microportal) entirely by the end of October. They cited difficulties in securing solid business arrangements to pay the costs for...

Pros: It's free, they donate money to charity
Cons: Can't access my account
This is another competitor in the world of free internet access providers. What makes these people different?
Well, unlike freeinternet.com and others you won't see a constant banner ad or window on your screen. They don't have one at all....
