There are two alternatives I can think of.
Get all the current patches from MS and apply them. Hope that there are
no new major security holes waiting to be exploited. Given IIS's
security record you will most likely be unlucky.
Get Apache for Windows and run it instead. It has a much better
security track record than IIS. Obviously problems will arise so,
again, make sure you stay up to date with any security fixes.
