e-mail, e-commerce (hyphenated, lower case)
online (not hyphenated, lower case) but: upper case if part of a proper name (America Online, T-Online, etc.)
multimedia (not hyphenated)
website (one word, lower case), but the Web by itself capitalized (as in, Company X has developed a powerful new program to search the Web.) Other words that are sometimes compounded with web should stay separated and lower case, e.g. web searcher.
Internet (capitalized)
www: worldwide web
home page (two words, not one): do not use this as a synonym for a website. It means the page to which a user of the web always returns, either because it is the entry point for a website or because it is set to load when a browser opens.
