Kate,
Sounds like you need to give "run scripts" permission to your cgi-bin directory. I'm away from my computer right now so can't give enough detail. Hopefully someone will provide the answers shortly.

Hi Kate: That sounds like a webserver configuration problem. Problem is that I'm not a windows
user (with MapServer). I'm cc'ing the local user group. A number of those folks have better
skills with windows webservers. MS4W installation *should* be straight foward. Any chance you've
already got IIS running on the machine? MS4W wants to install Apache for you and perhaps the
conflict is there?
