For ASP, the files MUST be in C:/inetpub/wwwroot/ (optional subdirectory) in order to be displayed and you must specify the page in the browser as
http://localhost/page.asp
or
http://127.0.0.1/page.asp

You may not simply open them from the file menu or double-click on them.

ASP files do not need to be in the INetpub folder structure. Did you install the IISLockDown tool and checked off the .asp extension? Also check to make sure that the application extension is mapped to the .asp dll. in the web sites properties choose home directory > configuration > and under application mappings you will find (or should find) this setting.
