IIS installation on Windows XP without CD.

I was searching for some option as how can i install IIS on windows XP without CD. There was a hell lot of links saying to download SP2 / SP3 (win xp service pack)... unrar the package.... start IIS installation... show SP path to installer.
But this didn't worked at all, as a number of files were missing. Infact no IIS installation file was available in any SP.
So after a lot of searching on net I found following link. This link is really a life saver link. Someone have uploaded a zip file, which includes all files required for IIS installation.
http://geekswithblogs.net/royhwa/archive/2006/01/22/66655.aspx

From here just download the zip file. Then unzip the file and start IIS installer. When IIS installer will ask you to show path of Windows XP CD-ROM then show path of unzipped folder.
Then whenever during installation it requires path of missing installer file, show it the path of uzipped folder.
IIS will be installed.

For your help, if you ever find this link un-available then mail me to get the file or leave a comment on this post with your mail address.

All the best...
