I've just reinstalled XP Pro SP1 and as yet have put no software on but a folder has appeared called C:\Inetpub. It contains four other folders AdminScripts - iissamples - Scripts - wwwroot. Does anybody know what this is? I've a tripple boot into Win ME and 2 XP Pro's so it could have been installed by some software on my other partition.
