IIS - localhost not displaying page

[Jessica Weiner]

I just installed IIS on my windows xp pro machine and when I try to access a
website on the local IIS server, I get the following error message:
"You are not authorized to view this page"
I have enabled "Anonymous access" inside Directory Security option of IIS
and I also granted full NTFS permissions to all users so that the IIS root
directory is readily accessible.
However, I am still not able to access any website that resides on the
localhost.

Please help.

Thanks.
Jess

what pages are you trying to access?
htm, html or aspx

if you trying to open aspx page you have to install .NET AFTER IIS
if it installed prior IIS then you have to execute this line
aspnet_regiis -i

hope this helps
