How hard id it to design and launch a basic website?

I have the Adobe Creative Suite Design Premium 3 (I got it for InDesign and Photoshop) but I've been asked to set up a basic website for someone. I guess I've got the tools - Dreamweaver etc. I'm reasonably intelligent, industrious. Should I go for it or will I be way out of my depth?

1. Its confusing at first but if you never try to set it up you'll never know. I currently have a website that I'm setting up. I have had no paid training. I'm self taught and am a decent hacker. My opinion is that you should go for it, keep in mind I've worked on my web page for over 2months and still have another 6months to go. Its a very time consuming process.-hope this helps-enjoy
2. If I can do it anyone can do it because I'm stupid.
3. with basic knowledge and you are doing it for someone else then you might run into some issues. Say like i want this to calculate this and that. Straight HTML/CSS/JavaScript is all easy with DreamWeaver. Now to host it. You can go the free way if you want then you will hear "I don't like the banners/advertisements". you can check out the stuff from Microsoft Office Live Yahoo has free hosting too.
4. It is really very easy take a look at http:vippatron.com for more information.
