SQL New User, Attempting to set up oracle on win98, No Listener?

I downloaded and installed Oracle 8i Personal Edition from oracle.com

I am completely new to oracle and sql. All I need is to use the sql command window, so that I can do my university assignments at home.

I do not need to setup a huge database over a network or anything.

I have set up a new database, but I keep getting the message 'No Listener' when I try to log on.

I have no idea what a listener is or how to set one up, or even if I need one for my situation.

If anyone could offer any tips, or point me in the direction of some web based instructions on this it would be much appreciated.
