Never mind that old site; I've abandoned it long ago in favor of the highly superior WBS service (now part of the GO network), see below.

Damn Tripod straight to hell; their new (& "improved") homepage editor simply doesn't cooperate with my browser. Absolutely *nothing* works...

Afaik, one of the best providers of free home pages is http://homepages.go.com/ No
pop-ups or large navigation
bars, just a single line of text and a small gif at the bottom of
your page.
Runner up could be http://www.fortunecity.com No pop-up, but they do add a rather big nav. bar with (sometimes) an animated ad to your page. Also, their recently new and (sigh) "improved" homepage editor sometimes converts your pages to plain text for some strange reason, so be sure to have a backup if you want to use it.
