Cannot launch webservice in debug from Visual Studio

[nagar]

I'm trying to launch a webservice in Debug from visual studio .net
2003. When I do that I get an error: "Cannot start debugging on the
webserver".
This happens on old and new projects, both using Visual Studio 2003
and 2005.

I think that ASP.NET is correctly configured as the application works
correctly if I launch it directly form internet explorer.

Thanks.

I got the impression that the problem depended on some software I
installed that messed things up with IIS.

I found that the fastest solution was restoring a backup image. Thanks
for your help.
