u still need to set ur router up to allow port 80 through to the PC running the web site.

Now, what I suggest u do is reset ur router, and WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN as you do it so next time something goes wrong, it'll only take half hour to get it going again.

m8, I know living in durham ain't nowt to be proud of, but there's no need to blow a gaskit Wink

now. take it from me as a fully qualified engineer of computers and networks that there's no way that you're going to be able to serve your site through ur firewall and router unless port 80 is routed - by your router - to the computer serving the web site.
