If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options
IIS creates two accounts. The one that's used for anonymous access is
IUSR_ComputerName. More here >>

On the other hand, if you have not already paid for the license of Win2003
Datacenter I must advise you not to do so if you're only going to host web
site on that machine. Datacenter might be the "top" edition if you look at
price but it doesn't mean it's the best solution for web hosting. If you
compare Win 2003 features among different versions, you''ll see that Web
Edition might be better for your needs. It's the cheapest version, designed
to host web sites and nothing/not much more. Another thing you should know is
that you'll probably need to set persmissions for System/ASPNET account if
you're programming in ASP.NET. The mini server in Visual Studio takes care of
all this stuff for you but the situation on production machine running IIS is
different. You should really get some good handbook ;)
