I think that the price $29.99 for Palo's Web Server compared with $100's say's it all really.

At that sort of money you should only expect something simple to run simple ASP applications.

To build a product that fully supports ASP and can run more complex software like Web Wiz Forums would take 1000's of development hours, and as software development is a highly skilled job, to build a product like that would mean having to sell it for $100's of dollars.

Software development doesn't come cheap, nor does supporting software, which is why most advanced software for a niche market does cost many 100's to buy.

As they say, you get what you pay for.

Interestingly enough, I did find another ASP web server from another company for 100 bucks. I tried it with web wiz and I got the same error as I did in QnE. I'm not sure what this means. Maybe maybe IIS is more fault tolerant when it comes to ASP coding? Maybe IIS works better?
 
The product I used was Xeneo Web Server from Northern Solutions Software. They had a trial version I tested with Web Wiz.
