I think Virtual Avenue (http://www.virtualave.net) offers free web space with CGI. However, I am not quite sure if they have SSI, so you may wanna check that out.

Try http://www.f2s.com They offer...

20 Mbytes of web space
Frontpage 2000 support
Advanced PHP4 scripting
Perl cgi scripting
Webalizer website statistics
website Search Engine
Database Servers

You can also get POP e-mail account(s). (I can't remember on the limit.)

The good thing is no ads! However, I have encountered a few incidents where I cannot log into my FTP account and the server response time to be slow. Then again, I do not live in UK, and this could explain the problems. Regardless, it's free and no banner ads or annoying pop ups.

I can never get it to work - f2s.com that is. I sign up, but it says that my name is taken.

If the name is taken, then you just need to choose another one. The registration is quite simple. The last time I registered for one is last week. Give them about one business day to activate the account.
