IIS - Unable to browse localhost on IIS 7

This is a really strange issue. Pinging localhost return 4 ping without
problems, the config in the IIS look fine, defauls web site is started, but
when I put localhost in the address bar, IE start live search to look for
something close to localhost and firefox refuse to show me the web site.
Just change the port from 80 to 81 or whatever you want, refresh and all
works fine.
Creating a new web site with host header name and changes the settings in
the host file to let the HHN recognizable also works without matter.
On a first time I thought to some problems generated from some wrong
setting, but deleting it and recreating doesn't solve the iisue.

Any idea?

Thanks

Firewall?

Windows vista firewall ... I think it should pass it without problem, also
because I didn't make any changes inside.
And technically connection on localhost shouldn't leave at all my machine
and go outside my network.

IIS Enable ASP within IIS 5.1 (Win XP) Hi, I tried running a simple "Hello, World form ASP" server-side script. . . and it appears that IIS did not enable ASP by default on my computer. It complaints that the "%" character is I manually enable the ASP feature? King he rv ASP is enabled by default on IIS 5.1 on Windows XP.

Several personal security software are known to cripple IIS, Scripting Engine, or COM+ to prevent IIS from functioning to execute pages like ASP, and

IIS Enabling Active Server Pages in IIS 7 I'm running IIS 7 on Vista as a test machine for a ASP site. But ASP is not someone please clue me in on how to enable support for Active Server Pages in IIS 7? - - Brandon http: / / www.presentationsdirect.com Make sure IIS is installed with all the ASP features.

IIS Over 66 seconds to fetch a simple css file on IIS 6 - follow up Hi there, This is a follow up on a question I posted SQL server profiler doesn't show any delays.

Hi - can no = responses to my original post, apart from one suggestion that I = uninstall and reinstall IIS, which I did but it made no difference. I'm using FrontPage 2000 and Windows the website opens. I have copied all my data to my new laptop, and installed IIS and the = FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions.

IIS Impersonation and File Permission problems Hello, I have a problem with file permissions in an SP2 Enterprise Edition, joined to an Active Directory domain). The problem seems to be that IIS is not impersonating the user when it's accessing the aspx file before handing it Is there any difference in the way impersonation or file access security is handled in IIS 6 running on an Enterprise or on a Domain joined server? I've read somewhere the aspx files simply by letting permissions inherit from wwwroot. . . What I want, is for IIS to honor the permissions set in the aspx files, something IIS is doing in my test server, but is not doing in the production server. The then really the only thing you need to do is turn off anonymous access withing IIS and make sure integrated is turned on. . your not really doing any impersonating. . . impersonating is my understanding of this it basically goes like this. . . a user requests a page from IIS and IIS checks to see if the user has access to that page (a combo of layers
