That's fine (we're all in over our heads at some point, that's how we learn new things), but once you're running a server on the Internet, the consequences of your actions become much more severe. > I moved to HostGaot because i heard there were the best in the hosting > business..... The hosting business means different things to different people. At one end, there's places like WordPress and Tumblr which hide all the details and let you pour content into a blog with some control over styling. At the other end, there's places like AWS, Rackspace, etc, which give you a raw (virtual) machine, and you're free to do anything you want on it. In between, there's paces like HostGator, which give you a slice of a shared host, and you're free to install cgi scripts under the control of Apache. How much you get to play with the Apache configuration probably varies wildly from provider to provider. It looks like HostGator either has things mis-configured to allow your /cgi-bin directory to be visible, or allows you the ability to configure those things yourself, and you mis-configured it.
