A reliable, ad-free host?

[sophie]

Hi, fellow pizza lovers (and everyone else, of course!)
I've deleted my crappy first site and I'm about to build a new one. I'm desperately searching for a decent host which must have the following features:

FTP support
No ads
At least 2mb space
CGI support (if possible).

I'm hoping it'll be my best site yet, so I need your support, people! It can be in any language. I need to know what you think is reliable.
Many thanks
SOOoooooooooooooooooOOOOOphie :)

Thanks.
First thing, the first host you mentioned doesn't have FTP. and second, I am not touching Portland with a 50-foot bargepole. It is too slow on my computer and I have had problems in the past.

Hello,

Sophie, according to freewebspace.net the first host does support FTP :)

Hey striker, thanks for that. I'm signing up and investigating. :) *gives striker a pat on the back*

I was kinda hoping no ads... but beggars can't be choosers so if the worst comes to the worst I'll use 4gigs.

I decided I don't need cgi anyway.
