Newbie with a couple questions

[Jammmer]

First off I am new to the world of vBulletin (Not using it, but trying to get it up and running)

After reading many other forums (after the fact) I have a hosting account setup with Godaddy. (If I only knew then what I know now!) I understand that was not the place I want to put the new vBulletin forum I am starting, so the questions I have are

1. is it possible for me to actually set it up and get it running on Godaddy temporarily while I skin and edit it?

I will not be accepting more then 5 accounts for remarks on the look I am creating

2. What installation quirks or suggestions (other then a different hosting service) does any one have (being that I have 60 days that I have already paid for) before I try and upload.

Well I am ready for the Godaddy jokes and I can take them!! I think I have probably made worse mistakes that have cost me more. LOL

Cheers!

1. yeah but If your just installing for skinning and editting stick up an Under constuction page and upload vB to a subfolder
-use a keygen version

Set up one extra account and pass it on to the people you want to show.
