I did register a host name at dyndsn.org but i can't view the page if i type in this address. On the other hand, my friends can browse my site by typing the address i got from dyndsn.org. I just can browse my site through the local IP such as 192.168.0.x.
Please help.

i don't know what's your problem, but i can suggest a workaround: put an extra line in your hosts file

the exact path is
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

the line should be something like
127.0.0.1 myaddress.dyndns.org
