dot net 1.1 will not install and old dot net will not uninstall

[aewarnick]

Every time I try to install dot net 1.1 it locks up at

Stopping Services

Service: iisadmin

When I try to uninstall the old version:
Microsoft dot net setup has failed.

I even tried to do these things in safe mode but to no avail.

Try stopping IIS manually before you attempt to install it.

I got the same error , but it was during Installating . every time i tried to install dotnetfx.exe i got an error "installation failed" ,
Thanks now i become to know that it was due to IIS.

That worked great. Why doesn't microsoft think of that?
