What operating system are you on? All (or at least most) versions of Windows come with webhosting software. in 98/ME this is PWS (personal webserver) and in 2000/nt/xp this is IIS (internet information services). PWS should be on the windows CD. IIS is built in. you can access it from the control panel (in subcategory 'Administrative tools')

Note: PWS is not recommended to run on Windows Me, and does not come on the CD. However, I've been using it with no problems (I bought Windows 98 SE previously).

I would definately recommend using IIS if that is available to you. If not, you can download apache for free from www.apache.org -- but IIS first and formost.

You need to enable it before you can access it through Administrative Tools, as Kris said. To do this click Start -> Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components -> Internet Information Services (IIS)
