Abvsolutely false. You have to use it on a server with the special 
icomhost file at the root directory, e.g. the Finnish Freenet.

Duh.

It DOES support frames and tables. See the fact sheet.

I-Comm uses Lynx. There is a difference between I-Comm (terminal/browser) 
and Lynx. Though of course if you have an ISP account you can use Lynx 
directly from your machine. But for the average TFN user, I-Comm may be 
the answer to enjoy some GUI, preferably within the TFN menues.

Stop the confusion campaign.
