>> Hi,

of some kind. In

webserver, you will

allows access to

(you can turn this

protection against

available yet for the

webpages running that

install of IIS on

So, I would

NAV.

you whatsoever

single physical CPU.

>> There's a link to download the network install on this

>> c) disconnect from the internet, and install IIS

>> d) install SP4 (that you saved to your hard disk before)
>>
>> e) reconnect to the internet, visit WindowsUpdate site,
and install the
