Here are a few answers:

3. Yes. Do this in the admin. Go to the category and click 'Add New Category'

4. Yes, the headings can all be changed in the admin when you set them up.

5. Shipping options depend on the modules you have enabled. Go to modules shipping to see the different shipping options.

6. Not that I know of.

7. ?? Not sure what you mean.

8. This has to do with your host. If they give you privileges to do more than create and delete, then yes you can. Use phpMyadmin to administer your db.

I mean change the titles of shipping and registion options.
For example:
I only need clients to fill in his email adress and some others.
They don't have to tell too many imformation.
