you didn't finish your post, you forgot to to include "if you want your computer hacked and generally rooted up."

Also IIS will only install on the Pro version of WinXP. For Home edition you need to use a 3rd party one anyhow.

This one seems to be quite good.

Very true. You may be better off running openSSH for windows and creating accounts and having your users come in using sftp.
