Best bet for free webhosting is to use the free webspace that comes with most ISP's e.g. BTOpenworld, Freeserve. I have my a few sites on these kind of free hosting account as you dont get pop-up adverts or anything. But you don't get much support for things like cgi, php, asp etc so I changed to paying for better hosting.

What error you getting? I never had any probs with BTOpenworld (apart from when they closed my account because I never once used the dial-up connection ).

Should be a section on the site you got the domain name from where you can set up domain forwarding. If not e-mail the domain name company ask them if they can set up forwarding for you.
