The standard "get you up and running" software is:

Stik or Sting - TCP/IP stack which dials into your ISP and provides the 
network
CAB Browser - version 1.5 is freeware but 2.x versions are commercial.
Newsie - e-mail, Usenet & FTP. Also contains a text-only browser.

Note that, without modification, STs can only give a max 19.2K 
connection. Falcons can go up to 115K using the HSMODEM serial port 
patch.

Haven't got the URLs handy for downloading, but maybe someone else can 
provide them or else mail me back and I'll root them out.
