1. Is this a clean install or upgrade
2. Is the machine in a domain or standalone.

If in a domain, check group policy to see if it is denying the IIS anonymous
user from logging on (hence anonymous access fails).

If upgrade, check that the anonymous user credential stored in IIS matches
the anonymous user credential of the local system or domain.
