Hi  
How do I install IIS on windows XP ? I have tried to click control panel \> add/ remove windows components but here I do not see the possibility to add or remove IIS.  
I have read somewhere I need to have set-up as basic windows viewing (as in windows 2000) then it should be possible to add the IIS. So how do I change this set-up then ?

It’s probably straight forward, when you know what to do…hhmmm. Please be specific/ detailed in your reply. Thanks.

best regards
