Welcome to the Freeserve solutions page! Over the past year the Dixon Freeserve internet service has become one of the UK's most popular. However users of Windows 98 will undoubtedly experience strange behaviour from their computer after installing the Freeserve version of Internet Explorer 4.
The reason behind this is because the FREESERVE installation is/was designed with Windows 95 in mind (Win 95 doesn't come with IE4). But if you've got this far with Freeserve, then chances are you'll be okay.
The best way to get the most out of FREESERVE is to visit their web site of view the list of common problems and frequently asked questions.
