Got slow ASP pages on IIS for XP Pro?

I had, and it took me a while to figure out what the problem was. I installed and reinstalled the cut down version of IIS, and while it seemed to serve HTML pages just fine, I lost my patience waiting for the ASP pages I had working with PWS to show.

At first I thought that it was a problem with the filters, but after a bit of tinkering and a few server restarts, I discovered that ASP pages weren't a problem as such - basic ASP code would work fine. I narrowed down the problem to FileSystem object in the end... I though that this was installed on IIS as default (well at least according to ASP in a Nutshell 1st Ed it should be).

Anyway - while searching through this board for XP problems (which was difficult considering that XP is a two letter word and not allowed as a search term), I noticed that there were a few people experiencing slow ASP pages on a clean IIS install... perhaps if you find yourself in the same situation - you should try registering the scrrun.dll that can be found in the system32 folder.
