I have installed WAMP for the 3rd time now as I've was initially told that it didn't install correctly.
However Still, everytime I try to open my local host it goes to IIS7, which then links to [www.iis.net].
I also try to open phpMyAdmin and it is just a blank page.
Every time I go to put it online as well, It comes up with the error:
"Aestan Tray Menu,
Could not execute menu item(internal error)
[Exception]could not perform service action:
The service has not been started."

Now I have started all services, and still the same message.

Can someone please help me, and explain what I need to do to get it working.
Thanks

IIS and Apache/Wamp are both web server and might conflict in some way, so you have to disable IIS in order for Wamp to work

Disable IIS in Vista:

Control Panel, Uninstall Programs, Turn Widows Features On or Off, uncheck Internet Information Services

Disable IIS in XP:

Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components, uncheck Internet Information Services (IIS)

Restart computer, then restart Wamp

Also, open file hosts in folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc and make sure you have only this line and nothing else

127.0.0.1 localhost

make sure no other program conflict wamp such as iis, skype, zonealarm, firewall/antivirus, nod32, eset, any web related program ...
