Azure offers a free trial. 

 

Maybe run up an instance on there? 

 

You can even migrate your current server over :

Another nice option to consider (for quickly and inexpensively spinning up 
preconfigured Windows instances) is a service call vaasnet.com. You could have 
an instance of 2k3 with IIS6 up in less than a minute, and then install CF 11

That will be ideal. But I don't have a server running Windows 2003 to try

My local win7 laptop runs CF11 but it's with Apache.
