I've read a lot of stuff and still can't make sense of this. I am
running Windows XP and I have a dynamic IP address. I don't want a
professional webpage, I don't want a www. All I'm looking to do is to
enable other machines to connect to my computer through some domain
name. Can someone explain to me, step by step, how I would do this?

Fairly easy really, just connect to the Internet without a firewall,
others will find and own your windows box in minutes.

What is it you really want to do? Serve files? music?
