I can no longer debug with VS2008 after installing Vista SP1. I get the following error dialog:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Unable to start debugging on the web server. Unable to connect to the web server. Verify that the web server is running and that incoming HTTP requests are not blocked by a firewall.
Click Help for more information.

OK Help

I've added VS2008 to the exceptions list in Windows Firewall -- No Joy... I even turned off Windows Firewall: No Joy!
WAIT -- All my websites are stopped. When I try to start them, I get an error saying that some windows services need to be started. Hmmm. They are set to "automatic" bu they are not started (specifically: World Wide Web Publishing Service). Ok, start it. Voila! I'm debugging again! Hope this helps someone else out....
Cheers,
Owen
