O.K. Here I go

I am use to IIS 7 and i decide to try wamp now i installed it no problems there.
Then set up a domain at http://www co.cc and now I have a domain name testwamp.co.cc then i set up dns at http://www dnsexit.com then opened port 80 on router now that went all good as far as know now since i never used wamp (Apache) manly.

I go to the www folder set up 6 directories for scripts i want to test one is MyBB 1.6 svn in in a folder called MyBB now when i set up mybb i used testwamp.co.cc
Here is problem
when i go to http://localhost I get wamp Server Configuration
when i go to (http://.testwamp.co.cc) i still get wamp Server Configuration
Now i know its probably something stupid but i never used wamp before this is first time.
I decide to try it out since 90% Mybbers use it maybe more i know there are not to many using iis
Hoping some might beable to help me fix this

What's wrong with IIS? Why are you switching to WAMP?
Why are you using DNSExit instead of .co.cc's DNS?
Why are you accessing 'localhost' if you opened up port 80 on your router?

Are you sure you have the correct directory? It won't be the same as IIS's.

Nothing wrong with IIS just want to see if i can use Wamp
Cause i got dynic ip adress
cause well when i put testwamp.co.cc it take me to the same place as localhost
yes running servers on differnt computers C:\wamp\www\MyBB thats where files are located

If you are thinking of using this as a real server, instead of using IIS, you have to download apache mysql and php. Its pretty simple doing so. Just you have to get rid of all traces of wampp.
