    The best simple web server program hands down

    Apache is the best for high-end production/power-users.

    The webserver states it supports Classic ASP, though it does, it's not free.

    "Classic" ASP support is available only on Windows using a third party commercial product called ActiveHTML from seliSoft.

    According to seliSoft they're product is no longer freeware.

    I'm sorry I didn't write a full review on the product, I'm sure it's fine. But I was looking for classic ASP support because the new Windows Vista is very expensive and I was hoping for a thirdparty webserver for testing ASP scritps and I'm sure others are thinking about it too..

    Makes setting up a webserver as painless as possible. I doubt I'll use it for production work, but for throwing a webserver together quick I will definately turn to this first.

    Excellent! Just what I was looking for.

    Was a breeze to set-up with a good walk through guide too! :)
