I have my website project that I've built in VS2008 and I can open the site using the default web server inside of the VS2008 and it works great.<br />

I've removed my virtual directory so I can start again. &nbsp;See the two images of my project in VS2008 and my IIS manager.<br />

I've walked thru several articles on how to set this up to no avail.<br />

publish website to local IIS

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
