Web Site malfunction

I've got the following setup:

Latest version of WAMP5
Windows Server 2003, latest patches (running via Virtual Server 2005)
Latest version of CMS Joomla

When viewing the Joomla website by remoting into the Windows Server machine and using IE7, when by localhost and by the internal IP address, the web pages show up great.

However, when using my physical's machine web browser (IE6 and latest Firefox) to view the website, it is all screwed to hell. It looks like none of the CSS is being applied. Any suggestions?

See the problem at [akniemann.dyndns.org]

Thanks,
Andrew

newseed - I was running into the same problem you are currently having about the broken css, images ,etc. After some searching on the forums I found the fix. Edit your configuration.php file and change

$mosConfig_live_site = 'http://COMPUTER HOST NAME';

COMPUTER HOST NAME from localhost to the host name of the computer where WAMP is installed on.

For example the host name of my computer is pluto. Once I changed localhost to pluto I was able to view my site from my laptop.
