IIS must be installed before the .NET Framework is installed on a Windows XP Professional
computer or Windows 2000 Server/Advanced Server. The SMARTsend installation program will install the
.NET Framework if it is not present on the computer, but it cannot detect the order in which these
applications were installed. If the .NET Framework and IIS are currently installed on the computer and you
are not certain if IIS was installed first, then these components should be uninstalled and reinstalled in the
proper sequence.
