IIS and localhost access error problem

[Larry S.]

I've been trying to use ISS, and discovered that when I try to browse to
localhost, or try to browse my wwwroot sites from inside IIS, I get the error
message below. I also found that Dreamweaver isn't able to access the
websites inside the wwwroot directory. Any suggestions on what to do would
be appreciated. I have already tried deleting IIS, rebooting, and then
reinstalling it, but nothing changed. Thanks for your help.
