Okay guys I have a router and norton firewall. The router has a firewall also but I got it later. How do I allow port 80 to be accessed with my router and how do I allow port 80 to be accessed with Norton Personal Firewall? Alot of help would be appreciated. Please help as I need this server badly.

This is what I had to do:

If you got a linksys or some toher routers, go into your web browser and type 192.168.1.1 and click go or hit enter. A box will come up asking for user name and password. Skip the username and type admin for the password. Click okay and it should let you in. once your in, click applications and gaming and click port forwarding. And do this:

NAME:ABYSS FROM:80 TO:80 PORT: TCP there will be a number like this: 192.168.1.__ You will have to get your local ip. Click start, click run, type ipconfig. soemthign should come up saying 192.168.100 or 192.168.1.102 or something similar to that. When that is done, put that in the black at
the router setup page. 192.168.1.*** then beside it click the check box that says enable. Click save settings and try again. When that is done go to www.whatismyip.com to get your ip and we will try your site out.

Hope that helps,
