Multiple websites in IIS on Windows XP Pro

     Unlike Windows Server Edition, XP pro does not support multiple websites in IIS. However, we still can use several ways around this.
     First option, just use IIS Admin, a simple program developed by a third-party developer for this purpose. (Download From Here)
     The second option is to use adsutil.vbs, located in the folder “C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts”:

     Where x is replaced by the new numbered site. For example if you run the first command and the highest numbered site is 4, then replace x to 5.

     The third option is to use Metabase Explorer from the IIS 6.0 Resource Kit Tools.Copy the default website (/LM/W3SVC/1/) and then paste it. This will also give you another website, ready to use. (Download From Here)
     Also we can delete the website using adsutil.vbs, Metabase Explorer or ADSI/WMI. To delete a website using adsutil.vbs, write this in a command prompt:

修改常用浏览器临时文件存放位置

     浏览器的临时文件往往默认存放在C盘中，导致C盘的空间越来越少，所以最好把这些临时文件放在其他地方，以保证C盘的空间。下面就分别介绍如何将IE、Firefox和Chrome的临时文件转移：（点击图片可看大图）

   1. IE浏览器：

• 打开IE，选择：工具->Internet选项->常规->浏览历史记录->设置
• 在弹出的设置窗口中，点击“移动文件夹”后，将文件夹移动到其他盘，例如：G:\IEtemp下
• 如果移动过慢，说明临时文件太多太大，可以先选择：工具->Internet选项->常规->浏览历史记录->删除，然后再移动

   2. Firefox浏览器：

• 打开Firefox，在地址栏输入“about:config”，firefox将会显示设置界面
• 找到“browser.cache.disk.enable”，将其值改为“true”
• 新建字符串“browser.cache.disk.parent_directory”，值设为要存放临时文件的文件夹，例如：G:\firefoxTemp



• 重启Firefox，在地址栏输入“about:cache”，可看到设置已成功

   3. Google Chrome浏览器：

• 找到文件夹“C:\Documents and Settings\(your user name)\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data”，将此文件夹下所有文件复制到要存放临时文件的文件夹，例如：G:\chromeTemp
• 找到桌面上“Chrome”的快捷方式，点右键，选择：属性->快捷方式->目标，不用修改任何东西，只在行末加上参数“-User-data-dir=G:\chromTemp”即可
