I am absolutely sure that the default for a workstation is NO IIS. I have
two. They exist as victims, what else, and they are not running anything of
the sort. I'm going to have to purchase one of those damnably expensive
win2k server 5-license copies, just so that I can have the new fingerprint
(hey, I only break my own machines for free).
There is absolutely not an install of IIS on win2k Pro, unless you put it
there.
Oh, and I DO know how to do things like that on windows (but prefer not
to).
