Thanks, I've managed to get IIS, php and mysql installed and configured and the invisionboard site is running well from my computer
The only problem now is that I need to asociate someone else's domain name with my computer's ip address and also want to set up another site but it's not letting me becasue it's saying that the ip address is already in use by another site running on this computer
How do I get around that?
You can see it working athttp://192.168.1.100 or it might behttp://192.168.1.1
I did try goaddy once but they wouldn't accept my uk credit card

It seems that cpanel is only for Linux although Ensim is for windows which is a similar thing but it isn't free
