How do I setup my own OSI, using free hosting site

I'm not really an expert at this stuff with servers, etc. All I know is I have the status.jar file. And I have some webspace on a free site, which I think can run as a server, since I do not keep my computer on 24/7. I uploaded the status.jar file onto my online webspace. Now what do I do to get it up and running?

Have you looked at the readme.txt yet or at least the FAQ about Hosting?

This can be done in one of the following two ways:

1. Use the imagefolder described in readme.txt

2. Place your own aimonline.gif icqoffline.gif etc in the same folder as status.jar

I doubt that a free web hosting site will let you run Java programs.

So does that mean you cannot run programs including java, virtually?
