It might be a setting in your IE. Turn off the auto search once, just as a
test.
Also, your Hosts file needs the localhost entry.

Hello,
I just installed IIS on Windows XP Pro. The problem that I am having is
that I can use http://127.0.0.1/ however, if I try to use
http://localhost/ the web browser tries to jump to http://www.localhost.com/. I have IIS
running on W2K and I am able to use the localhost URL. Am I missing
something?

Thanks in advance,
Steven
