    Any of the free web hosting especially those that support Fantastico would do nicely, you can try 000webhost.com. Cheers

    I like x10hosting or peakhost (but you need to install phpbb yourself). Pretty easy though.

    If you care about your forums go with any paid web hosting provider who has a good reputation. Placing a website on a free host means you do not care about it.

    Also, security sometimes may not be the best.
    Your forum likely could be compromised.
