In regard to the above posts:

I believe he is looking for a free host

Not a free forum, those are very easy to find.

Spaceports.com, one of the best free hosts around. Owned by tera-byte.

F2s.com, not so good.

Or you can try searching freewebspace.net

A friend of mine used to have a forum on ezboard.com. They used to be good, but then one day he received an email from them saying that he will have to pay 100 USD per month to continue using their service, or else have his forum shut down. Granted his site was getting quite a few hits, but 100 USD? Somehow I don't think that's a very fair price. I doubt it was using more than 2 GB/month bandwidth anyway.

Yeah i used to have an account with spaceports back in my early days when i used to try every free host :) i got a newsletter this month saying that.

they've apparently siezed the reimburstments program and will be reducing b/w to 5gb i think.

It also looks like Spaceports stands a good chance of going away in a few months as a "free" host.

Porbably not. Tera-byte.com probably knows what they're doing. Still 5gb of bandwidth for a free host is quite a lot. :)

Brinkster is a good free host. Mainly used by ASP Programmers, but it's free, no ads. Only thing is that free account does not allow ftp upload, must use their file manager system.

brinkster has also gone down as a fwh. thats not surprising because that is what happens eventually to all fwhs.
