Prevent absolute path from showing in url.

How do I prevent the absolute path from showing in url with my account name. I prefer not to show my account name to the world. Instead of xxxxxxx.com/index.html the url will display xxxxxxx.com/account_name/zencart/index.html.

Do I change it in the configure.php?

Do you own xxxxxx.com, or are you hosted in someone else's account ?

Then just move your store into the root of your site, bypassing the /account_name and the /zencart.
