Hi,

When you say "you can not start IIS", how exactly are you attempting to
"start IIS"? IIS is contained in a number of different services (IISAdmin,
WWW Publishing etc). Which services are started? and which aren't? (you can
check using the Services Administrative Tool).

if the WWW Publishing service is not started, you will not be able to reach
any webpages.

If the WWW Publishing Service is started, and you can't reach teh website,
then Norton must have some kind of firewall or similar that's stopping you
reaching your website.

Cheers
Ken
