Hey.

Did you restart IIS?
If so, try restarting the computer. (Env-variables may need that)

P.S.
Is there a reason why you are using IIS?
Generally, I would recommend using Apache with PHP.
(Avoiding mixing M$ software with open-source software - especially open-source software that happens to be the main rival of other M$ software - is usually a good idea :P)

COZ i had a Problem Installing WAMP server Or ApACHE... Server.
and the package i download had a Virus ... so it quite Bit Difficult to work with it..

Speaking as somebody who has used several versions of both IIS and Apache, you are a lot better of sticking with Apache.
(It's free, open-source, practically designed to work with PHP, platform-independent, o and did I mention: it's free!)

In the past I've heard some oddities regarding the WAMP package, so I would recommend XAMPP instead. I have yet to run into an error myself, using XAMPP.

You should also note that some anti-virus applications can give you false-positives on some of these packages. After all, they contain various pieces of server software, which aren't just your ordinary client applications. They are generally a lot more involved in the OS, so some anti-virus software may confuse it with some sort of a virus attack. (Not to mention that XAMPP uses file names like "kill.exe", which isn't exactly trustworthy in the eyes of a virus-scanner :P)

It is usually best to just turn of all anti-virus apps while installing stuff like this. They can cause all sorts of issues. (I've heard about issues concerning McAfee and Norton, in particular.)

But rest assured, neither XAMPP nor the stand-alone Apache server is trying to infest your computer with viruses. You can check for yourself if you don't believe me. It is open-source, after all.
