get error when trying to view installed web application

I am trying to test out an installed web application, used visual studio to
create a MSI file (windows installer program). I then copied the program to
a disk and onto another computer. The computer is not connected to a network
and is running IIS version 5. When installing it on another computer it
creates the virtual directory ok but when I try to go to the website using
http://localhost/webfolder
I get the error
A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource
''http://localhost/webfolder/ line 1,position 2
also says the XML Page can not be displayed. Just wondering what the
problem might be.
Thanks.

Paul ur XML isn't well formed..
Try opening it with an editor..
Or try the application by using another XML..
Enjoy
