localhost will not resolve

I have just gone through the process of installing .NET
FRAMEWORK, IIS and Visual Studio .NET on a system running
XP PRofessional.

I am trying to now attach to the web but get errors,
mainly pretaining to the fact that localhost will not
resolve to my web server (which is local).

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

This is a VB.NET language group. You may want to ask questions like
this in the ASP.NET group:

Brian,

You have to install IIS before installing the framework and VS.NET.
If you did not follow this order you have to uninstall all including IIS and
start over.

In my case it was sufficient to execute
aspnet_regiis -i
Don't know if it helps.

Actually the problem was not the order of the install, that was correct, at
issue is the fact that I have a router installed (a microsoft one at that)
between my computer and cable modem. When I unhook the computer it works
fine, as soon as I reconnect to the router I have problems.
