    could somebody post a good tutorial for IIS?

    I am a complete noob to IIS so I'd appreciate it if I can have the tutorial in layman's terms.

    like the complete idiot's guide to windows or something

    IIS is as simple as installing it from "add/ remove windows components" with the OS CD in the drive. The IIS admin snapin gives you all the config options. If you have front page, it makes setting up the web directory a little easier. If you want to add a simple index of files, Dirlist can be used for free for 30 days and builds a hyperlinked directory of file names. Just remove the directory path before you open the web so it isn't shown publicly, change page color or back ground, and you have a working website.
    The important settings in IIS are headers/expire immediately, performance, limit connections, max CPU, enforce, check extensions, do not allow authoring.

    The webserver that Livy was referring to can also be installed from Add/Remove Programs, why not try http://www.no-ip.org to host your website via HTTP, there was also a recommendation from BOT a while ago, but I'll see if I can search for it.
