Hi Nicole, George, et al,

I loaded the www.juno.com page and for me it shows a Free Internet tab on
the right side of the screen with this bulleted list underneath.

Free direct access to anywhere on the
    Internet for a full 10 hours each month?
Free email account
Reliable connections
Thousands of access numbers
Compatible with popular instant messaging         programs including AOL
Instant Messenger
    ICQ and Yahoo!

I quickly scanned the HTML of their page, but I didn't see any trigger code
to show dynamic content based on a cookie, browser history, or anything
else.  The above Free Internet sections seems to be hard-coded into a table.

I just went through my Temporary Internet Files and it doesn't look like
there is a persistent cookie.  There is a temporary one used on their page,
but it is deleted on exit (apparantly).

Good to be back on the List.

Brett

Hi Nicole, and All,

Components such as the "floating ad banner" come to mind...  those things
that run when the "Free Internet Access" runs but, don't when the Premium
account is running.  I'm always a bit hesitant to reinstall too, but
seems like you might want to bite the bullet and do as Juno suggests...
AFTER backing everything up, of course.  Or simply install into a new
directory and see if the new installation works...  then go from there.

I have several free accounts and it's working with all I checked...
although, admittedly, it's been a bit of a struggle to get connected some
days.

George Lunt ..... so. cal.
