Hi,

To upgrade from Home to Pro requires that you purchase the WinXP Pro Upgrade
CD, there is no download and no, it's not free. You will need it to install
IIS, but you may want to look for a cheaper alternative. I haven't used it,
but some recommend using Apache here:

professional. how to do that.

Yes, you can upgrade XP Home to Professional. There is no special
upgrade version just for this, but the regular XP Professional
Upgrade works fine (although it doesn't say so on the box).

Is there any site that can give it for
free.

No, not legally.
