Hi,
I just have been googling for hours trying to find the solution to my problem and ended up here. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me solve my problem.
I have Visual Studio 2003 and ASP 1.1.
When I try to create a new ASP .NET web application or service,
following error message pops up:

=================================================
The Web server reported the following error when attempting to create or open the Web project located at the following URL: 'http://localhost/WebApplication1'. 'A connection with the server could not be established.'
==================================================

Things I have done:

- Re-installed Visual Studio and IIS
- reconfigured ASP .NET by running 'aspnet_regiis /i' in the command prompt

Could this error occur from modifications in the registry or services.msc? because I might have unknowingly modified some of it thinking it was a spyware or virus.

Thanks for any help.

nvm, solved it
why can't I delete this post? whats up with "don't delete your own post" policy..
