www.jewishgen.org They've got a huge database, plus a growing number of SIGs (listed near the bottom of the home page) for specific countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, etc, that you can join or just get some info from. The main website and database are free, although some SIGs may have membership fees.

Litvak SIG (Lithuania, basically) -- they have quite a bit of info on shtetls (villages) that were there before WWII. Pictures too. There's also info on cemetaries in the Eastern bloc.

they now require logging in, but again there is no fee required --
