There are very few free ISPs left, period, and the only one I know of
that supported Linux (FreeWWWeb) sold out to Juno some time ago (Juno
does not support Linux).

If you can use or setup a dial-in system on your office network (Linux
is great for this), this gives you some access subject to company
policies.

You can use most commercial ISPs with Linux, though very few provide
technical support to Linux users.  One local exception is PatriotNet
(http://www.patriot.net/patriotnet/individual.mv), though I don't have
personal experience with them.
