Per Microsoft:

"Windows XP Home Edition does not include or support any versions (1.0, 2.0, 4.0) of Microsoft Personal Web Server (PWS). Users that need Web server functionality in a desktop operating system should use Windows XP Professional."

The above is from:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q304197

So your answer is to upgrade to Windows XP Professional.

There is a totally unsupported workaround for this issue, which has been documented by Richard Sandoz, Jave Programmer Guru. You can see his solution at:
