Virtual products - shipping and quantity issues

In a new ZC setup I need to have store products that don't have any shipping details or costs (we're selling a service) but I don't understand how to do it, and have a number of warnings. Here are my current settings:

SETTING: Product is Virtual: Yes
Warning: This product is marked - Free Shipping and Skips Shipping Address
No shipping will be requested when all products in the order are Virtual Products

SETTING: Always Free Shipping: Yes, Always Free Shipping
Warning: Yes makes the product - Free Shipping, Shipping Address Required
Free Shipping Module is required when all products in the order are Always Free
(freeshipper is the only shipping module enabled)

SETTING: Products Quantity Box Shows: No, Do not show Quantity Box
Warning: Does not show Quantity Box, Default to Qty 1
(Actually I think this warning is OK for my use?)

Also, I want to eliminate all of the 'Out of stock' and 'Quantity in stock' messages.

Thanks for info on getting this done the right way.

Re: Virtual products - shipping and quantity issues

Services should be marked as Virtual YES and Always Free Shipping NO as the Virtual Products already skip the checkout_shipping ...

Marking both will confuse the shipping ...
