Hosting a website at home - Server Extensions?

Hi all. I have astatic IP address and want to host a small family website on
my pc at home. So far I have been able to make a small website and get there
from outside my home network (at my work) by simply typing in my static IP in
the address bar. Now I wanted to add a discussion section and I get an error
saying that I need FrontPage Server Extensions. Can I host my own website at
home and install these extensions so I don't get this error? (I am running
Windows 200 Professional). Where do I install them and what code do I need
on my website so I can run the discussion/forum. I am so new to this I don't
even know the right questions to ask but any help would be greatly
appreciated.
