I connected to the FreeServe signup number and used Netscape 4 to connect
to the signup page.

So I see https:/signup.freeserve.net in my window and it eventually says
among other things
C Create a New Account Click Here

So I do this and see
https:/signup.freeserve.net/aup.shtml followed by 
https:/signup.freeserve.net/demog.shtml

which have a scrooling text window of legalese and an Accept button which
I click and it takes me back to https:/signup.freeserve.net again!

Is this how it's supposed to work?

Do I have to have CLI enabled to even get this far? or Cookies?
