Well I have been trying to install servers on my computer such as Apache, Xitara, Xampp and much more, and none have actually let others view my webpage, I can see it myself but no one else could. Now I like this Abyss Program, alot easier to configure that Apache and other web servers, but I need to know how I could get it to go to my Dynamic IP Address.. I looked into getting a Static address from my ISP but it's like $50 a month but includes Business DSL, and I have Basic, which has plenty enough speed to let others browse around on some webpages from my computer. http://efw.uni.cc now I got it set up for Dynamic Web Forwarding and downloaded a Program called Reactor which sends the company my IP address automatically everytime I log onto my computer, but I am still not sure if it is working or not.. It keeps going back to the url http://127.0.0.1 or what some people might call http://localhost which is my computer, my real IP address is totally different but I don't know how to configure Abyss to go to it. Can anyone help me?

For the web forwarding you have put the local host addresss. You should be putting your external ip addresss:

Do you use a router?

If you do, please visit http://www.aprelium.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3806 for instructions on how to set up port forwarding.
