Actually, WWWC doesn't use FoxISAPI at all, it uses a custom ISAPI dll that comes with the product. As far as other requirements, it depends on what all you need to do, but I recommend (as does Rick, BTW) using your own box so you have complete control over the configuration, and your app is not in danger of being hung by other apps (and vice-versa).

If you don't have direct access to the box, your ISP will be responsible for the initial install and set up, which can be tedious if something goes wrong.

This question is much better suited to the West-Wind support board where Rick can answer it himself. There is also a list of WC friendly ISPs there...
