NOTES:

• We do not support Microsoft's front page extensions on www.pubnix.net.
• A program is run every hour to automatically generate the list of user's home pages.
• In the event that you DO NOT want your page to appear on this list, place an empty file called .nolist in your public_html directory.
• You may place a custom description for your page that will appear instead of your name in the list of user's home pages. You can do this by placing a file called .description in your public_html directory containting a short one line description of your WWW page.
