Another numpty question - web servers

This is slightly more on-topic....

As I've now got a fixed IP, and a few things I want to see when away from
home (Homeseer, Digiguide, IP cams, TiVo etc), I want to host a simple
website direct from my HA server (XP), with just a few pages and links off
to the other bits and pieces.  What would be the easiest way to do this?  I
did download and install Apache, but I am a proper novice at this, and  I
can't see a way of implementing standard username/password security, yet
alone anything more complicated.  I can use FrontPage (if I have to), but
as
I say, I don't want anything fancy (no Dreamweaver here!), just access to a
few local services.

The key here is simplicity, so even though I know you want to, please don't
recommend I ditch XP and use a Linux webserver!

Thanks, Pete
