localhost

Having a problem getting iis to recognize my local web site. This is not in
inetpub, but in another location. I receive this message:
"A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource
'http://localhost/'. Line 1, Position 2". I've researched this and tried
several things and none work. With different tweaks I get the usual IE
messages: "You are not authorized to view this page", "The page cannot be
displayed, etc.

I've installed all the ISAPI applications. Anyone have any suggestions??
XP Pro sp2
asp.net 2.0.50727
IIS 5.1

Thanks.....

If the error is "You are not authorized to view this page", then i think you
have not configured start page on the website. Please check the start page on
the properties of the website.
