    Hi there,

    Excuse my stupid questions in advance, but I'm new at this and am a little confused.

    I bought a .ie domain last night along with the basic Windows hosting package. I can't get my site to load up at all to edit in any way which I'm assuming is because I still need to send in my registration letter to activate the domain.

    However can I not edit it offline or do any work on it until then? I'm finding the interface a little confusing on the control panel to manage as a newbie so was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a very basic how-to?

    I have a blog on wordpress.com which I want to recreate on wordpress.org under my new domain name and have downloaded wordpress (I think) but when I try to login again it brings me to my domain which doesn't load up. It's also saying on the site that "Parallels Plesk Sitebuilder 4.5 for Windows can not be enabled, because ASP.NET 2.0 is not enabled for Webspace blah" but I'm confused as to whether I need this as I'll be using wordpress?

    Basically I'm already feeling overwhelmed!:(
