It depends on what you consider a 'web application':

 - If it's ASP or ASP.NET, it's just a bunch of files dropped in a
directory, just like PHP. It usually has it's configuration in a
'web.config' or similar in the same directory.

 - But typically (well, before IIS 7) a 'web application' was
recommended to be implemented as an ISAPI Extension. That's basically
a DLL that you register through the IIS Management Console.

I could envision an ISAPI Extension that you register for some file
extension (or for '*') and that basically delegates to Paste. Oh, hey,
that sounds like ISAPI WSGI [1][2].
