PWS or IIS on Win XP HE?

[KParker]

My professor wants me to have PWS for class, and although I have PWS on another computer (WIN 98SE), I would like to know if it is possible to run PWS or IIS on Win XP HE (another computer). Microsoft thinks it is not necessary, but if you really need it you can upgrade to XP Pro...http://www.microsoft.com/WINDOWSXP/h...setupqanda.asp

Windows XP Home Edition does not include Internet Information Server (IIS), and IIS cannot run on this version of Windows. To run a personal Web server, you must use Windows XP Professional as your operating system.

I just want to know, is it possible to install IIS or WPS on XP HE? Or should I just leave it alone? Not a big deal, just curious.

After doing some research, a few sites have said that installing the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack will put a workable version of WPS/IIS on Windows XP Home. Anyone have any experience with this, or know if this works?
