Maybe I have a bad version of CF? I have never had a problem running CF locally.
Could this possibly be the permissions on my machine?

Ok I think I may have gotten somewhere with this.
I went into SERVICES to check to see if CF was running and it wasn't.
I selected RESTART and got the following message:

more information review the system event log
Tgirl,
When you tried re-install, did you first 'uninstall' CF, and then remove all
existing CF directories so that you were doing a 'fresh' install?

I would. Based on your last post, your jrun.jar file isn't even there, so

No. Delete the download you have (permanently) and then download it again.
Maybe even to a different location to be safe. Then check the size/md5 hash
to be sure you have a good download.

No there is not a better choice, it is just that it is such a large
download that if there is any network hiccup during the process you
may
not always get a complete download.
That is why Adobe provides the file size and MD5 numbers so you can
confirm you have a complete download

I ran netstat but I am not sure which one if CF.
You can use the -o switch to display the process ID, which can then be
looked up in Task Manager. In newer versions of netstat, you can use the -b

Before you tear apart the CF installation, try testing the IIS function to
ensure they work. Set up a directory and place a simple default index page
in it. See if it displays with an .html extension. If it doesn't, you have
an IIS problem.
If it does display, try changing the extension to .cfm

Try it in the wwwroot if you'd like. But you should check your IIS settings
before you drive yourself nuts on CF. Be sure you can get an HTML page to
display, because that internal server error could be CF or it could be IIS.
Be sure to eliminate IIS as a problem first. You'll never get to CF
