I would appreciate any advice on how to start troubleshooting a performance issue I am having with IIS 5.1. I am a novice at IIS. Here is the deal: Config: Windows XP SP1 McAffee virus scanning IIS 5.1 Visual Studio .Net Problem (simple de_script_ion): Open IE Type
http://localhost/adventurechallenges/library/images/b3.jpg Hit enter It takes 5 minutes (literally) for this jpg to be returned by IIS. The jpg does exist and it exists in the location indicated above in the URL. I checked it in IIS MMC (Internet Information Services, under Administrative Tools, which was under Control Panel). There are many other jpgs and gifs in the same folder. IE will resolve some of the files very quickly and others will take 3-5 minutes. Problem (more complicated de_script_ion, but I think it is the same thing): Start Visual Studio .Net An Open Project window is presented. I click on any of the available projects. An Open Web windows is presented, showing me that it is attempting to open the project. It stays there for about 30 minutes before opening the project. I know it is waiting on IIS because of the following IIS log entries .... #Software: Microsoft Internet Information Services 5.1 #Version: 1.0 #Date: 2004-06-28 04:10:04 #Fields: date time c-ip cs-username s-sitename s-computername s-ip s-port cs-method cs-uri-stem cs-uri-query sc-status sc-win32-status sc-bytes cs-bytes time-taken cs-version cs-host cs(User-Agent) cs(Cookie) cs(Referer) 2004-06-28 04:10:04 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 GET /AdventureChallenges/~~-90540276229646021.tmp - 200 0 271 167 0 HTTP/1.1 localhost Microsoft-Visual-Studio.NET/7.00.9466 - - 2004-06-28 04:25:07 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 GET /_vti_inf.html - 200 121 0 262 902719 HTTP/1.1 localhost Mozilla/2.0+(compatible;+MS+FrontPage+4.0) - - 2004-06-28 04:25:07 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 POST /AdventureChallenges/_vti_bin/shtml.dll - 200 0 506 407 156 HTTP/1.1 localhost MSFrontPage/4.0 - - 2004-06-28 04:25:07 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 POST /AdventureChallenges/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.dll - 200 0 301 444 0 HTTP/1.1 localhost MSFrontPage/4.0 - - 2004-06-28 04:40:37 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 POST /AdventureChallenges/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.dll - 400 121 0 457 930282 HTTP/1.1 localhost MSFrontPage/4.0 - - 2004-06-28 04:40:37 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 POST /AdventureChallenges/_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.dll - 401 5 4246 559 15 HTTP/1.1 localhost MSFrontPage/4.0 - - 2004-06-28 04:40:37 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 GET /AdventureChallenges/ - 302 0 311 167 0 HTTP/1.1 localhost Microsoft-Visual-Studio.NET/7.00.9466 - - 2004-06-28 04:56:08 127.0.0.1 - W3SVC1 DUFF1 127.0.0.1 80 GET /AdventureChallenges/ - 403 5 4219 168 109 HTTP/1.1 localhost Microsoft-Visual-Studio.NET/7.00.9466 - - See how there are really big gaps in time between some of the entries?

The only thing that I know of that has changed is this. For an unknown reason, IIS stopped unexpectedly. Since then there has been trouble. IIS has been reinstalled. Visual Studio has been reinstalled. McAffee is at the latest signature file. I don't know what to do from here. Is it possible that the _meta__base_ is messed up and needs to be recreated? I appreciate any assistance. TLT
