lycos web

[twin-moon]

While searching for a home for my webpage, I noticed that Lycos offers 1 GB for free. My paranoid mind immediately went into 'being too good to be true' mode.
They do say they'll send you some spam, any reserve the right to remove anything.

So there's some serious drawbacks, but also a tempting 1GB webspace.

Anyone got any bad experiences with them? Or good ones...

I used lycos.co.uk a long time ago (about 3 years ago) because it was one of the only free hosts i could find offering php/mysql database, and it was great for that.  The only drawback I found were the ads it added to the sites.

The relevant number these days is not storage space, but bandwidth.

Yep, it's a noob question. I realise that now.
It just seems odd, most offer 20-50 mb and suddenly's there lycos offering 1 gb. But there's a lot of bad press about 'em.
They do offer unlimited bandwidth, fair use policy. Which means you don't know how much it'll be. I'll look further.
