If it is on your computer, you will have to make the domain on co.cc to redirect to the correct link, it wont change if there is no redirection.

You are going to have to set up your computer to act as a server from outside requests (not recommended)

Or buy some hosting/find free web hosting and host your forum there. (recommended)

Some hosts will give you a subdomain to use. Some will require you to buy a domain.

You need to buy a domain, if you have one and it's online then you need to run repair settings.

What is repair_settings.php? (http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=663)
