About 60 percent of 2,000 people surveyed in the Pew Internet and American Life Project study said they use the Web regularly. Two-thirds of those had been online for three or more years.

At least 80 percent of the Internet users questioned in September and October said they expect to find reliable information about news events, health care and government services on the Web.

Almost as many Internet users, 79 percent, said they expect to find a business with a Web site that will give them information about a product they are considering buying.
