Do I Need To Take My Firewall Of To Run My Domain Website?
I had a domain name at name2host.com and it wouldint work so i tryed everything than they said turn my firewall off i asked someone how to do that they said windows 98 dont have a fire wall can someone tell me what i need to do in order to get a domain name up and running?
You are running Windows 98? Anyway, have you followed the instructions for setting up your domain and your website on your host's site? Your firewall really should have nothing to do with this. What exactly is going wrong?
