How do I turn off the Comments section

I’ve just set up my front page but can’t see how to get rid of the comments section on there. I would like to be able to use it later on another page but not on the front. Please could you tell me how I do this.

if the problems i’m having persist I may have to ask for a refund, because everything I try to do with this program never works as you describe it in the documentation and I have to go all round the houses to try to sort it. this one however has defeated me.

thanks
