  I am using the free version, but bandwidth very limited, so I refrain from uploading things. I upload my picture files to photobucket and link them to the website. Save bandwith.
  
  1.5MB nia, worse than MSN. MSN at least got 3MB....

  Go and buy a copy of Tuesday Straits Times. Take out Digital Life. Look through the advertisements.
  
  Or if you have copies of Digital Life at home now, flip through.

  Difference between normal hosting & e-commerce? AFAIK, none really except for a shopping cart script for your transaction stuffs.
  
  A reccomendation on the webhost, I say http://www.iwi.com.sg. I was with them for a year. They got professional customer support (24 hrs and fast reply) and very good features for your web space. Check out the Christmas specials. Starts from SGD$12.99 per month. And yeah, they have an easy set up for the e-commerce thingy.
  
  Or look into sgwebhostingtalk.com for random offers and more inquiries.

  Free usually comes with ads .
  http://www.forumer.com/ - This one is cool.
  
  Or search for - free IPB or PhpBB hosting. They are forum scripts.
