IIS 7.5

What do you like best?

Awesome. The same web server that runs on your production server is now available on your development computer. Most tasks can be done without the need for administrative privileges. Many users can work independently on the same computer.

What do you dislike?

Limitation: IIS 7.5 Express doesn't honor library settings in Windows 7. IIS 7.5 Express only understands the default documents folder in Windows 7. It doesn't support non-default document folders and will continue to utilize the default documents folder for configuration files, log files and other settings
