Host website on my computer

The server that hosts the company's website is down.

I know i can host a website on my computer.

Could i switch the hosting to my computer until their server is back up ?

(does not deal with credit card info)

There might be some problems with your ISP and doing so, but yes.  You can.

Yes, with a list of caveats longer than Bat's average post size (wink)

Seriously, if you're asking the question, don't do it. You will cause much pain and misery for yourself. Just yell at the hosting company until the hosting is working again, then search for a new host.
