I am again looking for help with Worldgroup's Web server. I'm using it to host my web site (www.willsrepair.com), and I want to put a forum on it. However, it doesn't seem to be able to execute PHP scripts. Does anyone know enough about WG and its server stuff to help me out with this?

well, maybe i downloaded the wrong file or something, there isnt a readme.txt or readme.1st file in there...just a helluva lot of files in a format that windows doesnt recognize. either of you guys have AIM or ICQ or something?

do you see a README? open that in notepad if it's there or browse the FAQ's or install directions on the site.
