 * I am trying to enable wordpress multisites on a windows hosting plan through 
   godaddy. I am able to get the mainsite up and running and I am able to add sites
   through the dashboard but when I try to access any of the other sites other than
   my main site I get a 404 page not found error. The only instruction that I have
   not been able to follow is in editing my web.config file. I cannot find an existing
   web.config file in any folder of my hosting account. When I create a web.config
   file and paste the code into it as directed by the instructions within wordpress
   I get a 500 error and I am not able to access my website at all. Any help would
   be appreciated.

 * Gave up Godaddy does not support apps it provides, recommended to install multiple
   instaces of wp for each domain I want to host.

 * i host multi site on godaddy hosted accounts, works great, but i recommend using
   linux not windows. just works better on the godaddy stuff.
