Of course there's the easy way with apache - XAMPP.
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html or EasyPHP.
I've noticed several people on usenet have problems with WAMP.
I haven't installed the MS web server, but you've piqued my curiosity. Why
should IIS not be installed on a computer connected to the internet? I mean
the web server built into XP (was that any better?)? (should I be asking
about security holes at all on usenet?) I noticed there's a lockdown patch
available for it from MS, but I don't know any more than that. I mean, how
bad is it? Really bad? Gaping hole even with the lockdown patch?
