Classic ASP and IIS 6.0

Hi,

<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.ilopia.com/Windows2003/search.aspx?qid=42" target="_blank">http://www.ilopia.com/Windows2003/search.aspx?qid=42</a>

Q42: I have created an *.asp file, but when i try to browse it I get HTTP
Error 404 - File or directory not found. I know the file is there, what
could be wrong?

IIS 6 is locked down by default. This means that script files like asp and
php cannot be executed until you allow it. To allow asp files, follow these
steps:

a.. Click Start->Programs->Administrative Tools->Internet Information
Services Manager
b.. Expand <servername> and click Web Service Extensions
c.. In the right pane, right click Active Server Pages and select Allow
