You mean run a web server off a modem dial-up account? Not to sound rude,
but why would you do a thing like that? Saying that it'd be slow would be
a gross understatement. Dial-up accounts aren't meant for servers;
they're meant for Joe Generic to surf the web and download porn.

1) find one that does co-location
2) if you have cable or xDSL access in your area, ask about running a
server through their service. It'd be a hell of a lot faster.
