Does everything work fine when you access the site locally? If so, look at your router and make sure it's set up to properly re-direct port 80 (or whatever port you're using) to your IIS server. If the router is set up fine, perhaps your ISP is causing issues? Not all home DSL/Cable connections will allow you to run a web server. You would need a business account for that purpose.

It works fine when accessed with my local ip (192.168.1.102) but not with my Internet IP(75.104.220.150) with the internet ip i can access it but it wont load some of the content. Sometimes its pictures misssing and others it the entire page. it random and not the same pic or page.
I had the server down for the last few days off and on because its on my personal computer. But it should be up for the rest of the weekend.

The only 2 problems that I can see is that the guestbook doesn't show up (there's an error) and the site is extremly slow (but this is expected when the site is on a DSL/cable connection).

I have to register the website address for the guestbook. Its a security feature at the guestbook website. :aggravated:
