Welcome to the forums.
Re-read the rules that you agreed to when you signed up. Also see the "stickied" threads at the top of the newbie section.
Also don't be afraid to search for yourself both here on the forums and google.
These things will make your stay more pleasant.

As for your question it has been answered a bazillion times already so it is here.
