Hi,
The ISP I'm using provides 8MB of web space.
However, it uses the account name to represent the
the URL. If someone knows it, probably the a/c gets hacked, and lots of spam
come thru my email a/c
But I want to use the service the ISP provides. so how to hide my username
in the URL....
Thanks
Jack

You'll need to ask your ISP if they provide aliased hosting. This would
mean that your website of (for ex.) www.myhomepage.com really resolves
to http://www.myisp.com/~jackyluck...yada yada.

If they don't, buy a domain name and use a hosting company.
