    You must be kidding.
    If you're looking for "secure by default" you should look at chroot-ed
    Apache from OpenBSD or thttpd or RedHat' Stronghold or AOLServer. Or
    even plain Apache. At least you could search http server and you'll find
    a dozen of http servers more secure than iis.

    Beside that he was talking about IE, not IIS.
    Anyway, you made my day with this joke ;)
