firstly thank you for your help.

1) my web site was working fine before os installation
2) index.html now has some numbers after it
3) what are these numbers? if i delete them what effect will it have on os as i presume this has renamed the file in the installation process.

you have probably installed os commerce into your main directory instead of a sub directory and has overwritten your web page. Basically you've screwed up mate. The only solution I can see is to reset your account from scratch, if you would like to do this please open a new support ticket and we will do this for you.

just to let you know, whilst i am new to all this and very clueless, i didn't screw up as you put it, i installed in sub directory 'shop' not the main directory, and i solved the problem by uninstalling, republishing index page, and install os commerce again in 'shop' sub directory and has worked properly and this time all is fine.

Sorry about that, but 98% of all script installations problem are down to human error.
Forgive Sarahs bluntness, she is from Tazmania;)
