In another thread here I found this page. Now I see they have a free account, too.
Has anybody tried ?
(Recently I have done many errors and some harm to my poor PC, so I want to know in befor - is it safe to try this account? )

Has anybody experience ?

I haven't had any problems with iWon, however, you will get bombarded with news and offers from iWon.

you will get bombarded with news and offers from iWon.

Being not-a-PC-professional, I trust only webmail. Do they have webmail option?
Do I get these offers only, when I open my e-account, or a lots of offers will pop up every time when my PC is connected with internet ?

They'll just be sent to your account, so it wouldn't matter if you are using the webmail or POP.

Does that also apply for Excite mail, now that Iwon ownes it? I bet they'd like to

Most likely...I receive a lot of spam in my Excite account.

iWon still has free forwarding (rare for free email!) I use my iWon account all the time.

No, I have never won @ Iwon.

Iwon email is the same as Excite and My Way. I use the My Way, love the lack of advertising! The Iwon email was good.

If you want to try the Iwon account, better to try MyWay.com if you don't want lots of ads. Myway.com will also be ad-free.

My Way is a lot better and you get the same features and interface.
