You "purchased" a webpage?

Why did you buy a webpage?

Are you sure that you didn't mean that you bought a "domain"?

If this is the case then there's usually a 24hr. or so delay before you can actually use it. You'll get a couple emails from people about this. Keep a close eye out for them...

Don't throw it away... Put Linux on it!
