You are basically asking (I think) if there is a way to serve web pages w/o
using IIS. You could write your only program to listen to port 80 and sent
out the html page directly. You could use a different port as not to
conflict with any webserver already running on the machine. The user would
then type in http://MACHINENAME:PORT/ and you would then send back the
stream of HTML.

Do I understand the issue that no "outside user" isn't running the program
you wrote?

If this is an internal network, you could just write out an HTML file to a
share drive and let the user open up the file in the browser.

Not sure this helped...
