You will need to setup apache with virtual host containers. It is not hard but you should read your docs or visit

http://www.apache.org

for full details on how to do it. You can always come back here if you have any specific problems with it. To allow users to manage and upload files to their domains, you will also need and ftp server. There are a few good ones out there so again, I will have to refer you to their documents. You should also offer them e-mail. If you had linux you would already have one of the best in the world for free but with windows, you are going to have to shop around and they cost much more than their linux counterparts. I have heard that there is a version of sendmail designed for wondows platforms but I don't know where you can get it.
