ISS error

Hello all,

I am running Exchange 2000 on a Windows 2000 Domain Controler.
I would like to use OWA but IIS keeps coming up with errors.

When I bring up "Internet Services Manager" three of the default webpages (public, Exchange, Exadmin) have a red "Error" symbol beside them instead of the typical folder & globe icon.
When I restart IIS the error symbol goes away, but the websites still don't work.
It looks like IIS is having trouble creating the Virtual root directories from the event log.

This leads me to believe it is a permission based issue.
I get this error in the event log when trying to access the default IIS webpage:
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 36
Date: 10/29/2003
Time: 9:53:18 AM
User: N/A
Computer: MORDAC
Description:
The server failed to load application '/LM/W3SVC/1/ROOT'. The error was 'No such interface supported
'.
