ive been installing IIS when suddenly it stopped and said smtpsnap.hlp is missing :X please help me out can i download it? or can some one opload it ? its only like a 20KB file in the I386 file =/
 
smtpsnap.hlp is a help file for SMTP (Simple Mail Transport Protocol) which is the
outbound protocol for email.

this is the kind of stuff that make me mad regarding MS software: bloated and bundled
components that have nothing to do with the product being installed, ie IIS the MS Webserver.

You may well find you need these components as well
list of files to install, that are not part of the SP2 nor the original XP installation:

- adsutil.vbs
- smtpadm.dll
- seo.dll
- rwnh.dll
- smtpapi.dll
- smtpsnap.dll
- smtpsnap.hlp
- smtpsnap.cnt​


To get IIS installed, use the MSDN XP Pro & SP2 disks, but the files
that are supposed to be on the SP2 disks are not there - at least, they
are not visible.

You need to run the XPSP2.EXE application thus: XPSP2 /?. This will
extract all the files to a temporary folder on your C drive and then
popup a help window with an OK button. When you click OK the temporary
directory will be deleted. So before you do this, install IIS, using
your XP CD and the files in the temporary directory.

As previously mentioned, some files are actually in I386\IP and not I386
as prompted. You will be prompted for the 'CD' a couple of times so
make sure you pick the real CD or SP temporary directory correctly.
 
Should be in I386\IP in your XP CD
Also can be in C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

One user stated run XPSP2 /? from your Windows CD
This will extract the files to a temporarily location on your HardDrive
You will receive an OK popup box - Do Not click on OK
As this will remove the temporary files, that you need
Just continue on with Installing IIS

All should work - ok
Once IIS is installed fully, you can then click ok message box

Please reply back, if this helped
