How to Stop IIS starting at startup

Hi

Does anyone know how to stop IIS starting at startup? I used to turn it to
Manual in Services in XP, but I cant see it in Services in Vista. The IIS
Control panel just has Start and Stop and I cant find anything about not
starting it at startup.

Thanks

You could use a startup batch script.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q243486/

And use the command:

net stop "World Wide Web Publishing Service"

ss.

You can access Services via running MMC (Start ... Run ... MMC) then
Add/Remove snap-ins and add the Services snap in.

As I am not using Vista right now (I really can't be bothered with it these
days - I'll give it another once SP1 comes out, although it is still pretty
disappointing), I cannot check what the best way to run a startup batch
script is, but all you need to do is figure out how to do that, and then use
the command:

> net stop "World Wide Web Publishing Service"

ss.

here are 2 examples of batch scripts that I have made to control services

to start 2 services

@echo off

net start wuauserv
net start Alerter

---to stop them---

@echo off

net stop wuauserv
net stop Alerter

where I have the names of the services you can enter your own...
write this in a notpad, and change the extension to BAT


if not you can always create a batch file

Laurie,

Try this: Control Panel, Programs and Features, Turn Windows features
on or off. Uncheck the box for Internet Information Services.

Hi

Thanks but that just uninstalls it doesn't it? When I want to start it next
time I would have to install it again wouldn't I? Wouldn't there be an
easier way to keep it installed but just not start?

What is the point of this post? It's not only redundant, it's irrelevant
too.

What is it that you do not want starting? Just websites?

They would only be started if you had started them in the IIS manager
anyway. So if you had disabled them there, they will not be running next
time you startup.

If you want to make sure that non of the websites are running on startup,
and before login, what is wrong with the solution I posted? If you give me
some feedback, I can see if there is a better way. Does this command not
work??

net stop "World Wide Web Publishing Service"

ss.

you need to take those meds for your synapse syndrom idiot
