Looking for a web host

Because I've been using over 10gb of bandwidth at my current host, I'm looking for a new free host that I can upload (preferrably by FTP) new versions of FLMM and, eventually, a personal web site for FLMM and other projects I have. Can anyone here help me?

it's that word "free," Matthew, that's the problem. We all love u and worship u like a god for FLMM, seriously, but just exactly how much hosting are u looking for? I may be able to help u out or point u in the right direction (no promises mind u) but u'll have to be a bit more specific about what u want.

There are two things I'm looking for right now: a host for FLMM downloads (that lets me personally upload new betas), and a host for a personal website (~50% about FLMM) with FTP or Frontpage HTTP access. I'd prefer to use the same host for both, but I certainly don't need to. As far as disk space usage goes, both together would use less than 5mb. As for bandwidth, the downloads host would have to be very flexible (the beta has been using 10gb per month because I've been updating it so much, but once I finish the final version Lancer's Reactor can host that), but the PWS host doesn't need to be high bandwidth - it'll be mostly text, with a few small pictures.

Thanks, that looks just like what I need for a website host. I've also gotten some offers for mirrors for FLMM, so I should hopefully be set .

NO dont use prohosting its banner ads galore

i use brinkster.com for some sites, its not bad, although they stick a little ad on now and then, but if you pay like a dollar a month or something, that pisses off. You get about 30 meg or soemthing, which is luxury. dont know about bandwidth though.

dont know about bandwidth though.
500 MBs. Looks nice. I'll have to use it some day.
