  HTML Freeware:

    AceHTML Freeware is back. AceHTML Free is an excellent free HTML editor. The maker, Visicom Media, has twice withdrawn support from the free version, to encourage users to purchase the pay version, but the free version has again reappeared.

    You might also consider HTML Builder XP-LITE v6.0 Beta (make sure you get the LITE free version, not the $99 pro version free trial) and HTML-Kit. EVRSoft's 1st Page 2000 is another excellent free HTML editor. In fact, like all good freeware, you should download and try all four before somebody takes them away.
Internet Supervision will check, for free, the time it takes one of your web pages (up to 100KB) to load at 9 different locations around the world simultaneously.
