Hey Guys,
My Mom would like an inexpensive ISP for retrieving e-mails. She has asked about PeoplePC and Net Zero -- Anybody have any comments or information that they can give me? Or even a better solution...!
Thanks,
P.S. I wish I could give you all 10 points - but I promise to review all the answers and give the points promptly!

If you must choose one go with People PC it's owned by Earthlink and has good customer service. However I would recommend geting DSL through your local phone company. AT&T has DSL for 14.95 a month just $5 more than Dial-Up. Verizon DSL is also very reasonable. Plus, you can use your phone while your online.

I ought to presume you're obtusely asserting the line gets dropped while you're dialed in. the rationalization it occurs is using line static that interferes with the information communications. The server believes this is lost the relationship on your pc so it closes this is end of the relationship. If it somewhat is the situation, then you definately'll nevertheless have problems with any dialup ISP. you in all probability have previous telephone wiring on your place, or you're making use of an rather, very long telephone extension twine, or you're working your telephone twine close to something that produces an electromagnetic container and this is corrupting the sign. i could get a top high quality modem telephone twine (it somewhat is sheilded and twisted) to expire of your modem to the telephone jack, and that i could redo the telephone wires from the jack to the substantial telephone line (this is usuallly in the basement). If that doesn't fix it, then this is the telephone corporation's fault. in all probability between the domicile and community junction container.

netzero is unreliable
it used to get offline by itself
u should look into the all in one at time warner cable

Neither one are worth the money. They both are so bad I can not say which is best.
