>>Don't change the address for localhost, it's supposed to be 127.0.0.1 (loopback address).
Ok it is left as 127.0.0.1

Nope nothing pops up, I also tried
http://LocalHost but I didn't think that would make a difference anyway.

I'm not sure what you are saying here...but when I double click on Default Website I see a bunch of files, as well as what appears to be aliases. Everything looks fine...everything looks like it is pointing to the right things. Home is pointing to c:\Inetpub\ftproot, and I don't think I changed it, but should that be c:\Inetpub\wwwroot? I think it is right because when I go to see the properties of teh Default Web Site Properties, and go to the Home Directory tab, c:\inetpub\wwwroot is set as the local path. hmm?
>>Open up the Services Control Panel under Administrative Tools and make sure "World Wide >>Web Publishing Service" is started.
It is definitely started. I have a feeling it is something that is super simple, and it is going to be really hard? Maybe I'll read some more about the different fields in these properties, and I'll see something. Please post any ideas as they come along.
