I recommend staying AWAY from PHP 5. We were getting alot of random errors
with IIS 6 and PHP 5. I finally went back to PHP 4 and all our problems
went away. With PHP 5 would get random errors like host header string not
complete or something to that effect and no php page would work. It even
affected non php pages at times. PHP 5 has a WAYS to go before it's ready
for IIS 6 it seems.
