Enable HTTP Compression in IIS5

External Since: Mar 05, 2004 Posts: 2

I'd like to enable the HTTP option on my W2000 Server/IIS5.0
However the panel "Services" is not displayed when I select "Options" from the Internet Services Manager???
I tried to register again the compfilt.dll, without success...

Hello,
Are you running Windows 2000 Professional? Please see

If you are running Windows 2000 Server or Adv Server, here is what you want
to do:
1) Open IIS Manager
2) Right click on the machine/server name and choose Properties
3) Click Edit button for Master properties for WWW service.
4) Click on the Service tab
5) Check the options to enable Compression.
