This is almost surely a permissions problem. By default IIS will run as a very low privileged user. I suggest in the IIS configuration you try and run the vhost as your login user on the Windows machine and see what happens.

I can't figure out "vhost" is, but I tried running the IIS itself as an administrator-level user but it won't start ("access denied" error). I also tried putting the IIS user in the administrator's group, but connections still didn't work. I've given up on IIS and have installed lighttpd. That means I use PHP CGI until I take the time to set up fastCGI, but at least I can move on to my next issue. Thanks for your help. -eb-
