PWS is soooooo slow!
I'm running PWS on my local machine. I don't use it as a web server in the strictest sense, just for developing sites on my machine at home....The site is hosted elsewhere.
Now I've just done a format on my HD and reinstalled everything and PWS is running very slowly, about ten times slower than it ran before. In addition, when I check the properties for the webserver it says the root web is located at http://Phil%20Williams/ when before it said http://WebEdge/ which has always been my machine name.
Are the two connected? Can I get it running at the speed it was before and how? How do I change the default from Phil Williams back to WebEdge?
I've no idea how it happened as I didn't install in a different order that I normally do, it's all a little bit odd
Any ideas?

Hey, flipper. I started to post a little while ago but didn't get to it. I suspect that it has something to do with your computer name vs. logon name. Try this article in the MS knowledge base and see if it helps.
