This means you do not have to have IIS running local. I don't. However, I
use Visual Studio to develop my code and I work in what is called Master
mode. This means I develop locally and remotely but I could work in local
mode. However, I cannot view server-side scripting unless I use a web
server. In master mode, my code is automatically saved locally and remotely
when I save it. I can then right-click on the file I'm working on, after
saving, in my project explorer and select View in browser. This will launch
IE and call for the virtual path on the web server so I can test the page.

Perhaps something in interfering.
Everything you need to know about .NET Framework 1.1:

If you need help with .NET development, the NGs supporting it have dotnet in
their name.
