There is something called Abyss Web Server - I've never used it myself so can't vouch for it but from its description and features it looks promising.

If money is the issue, Microsoft came up with IIS Express some while ago which is free to download and use and from this question looks like it's supporting classic ASP as well.

I have no idea whether you can even get hold of this software anymore but Sun used to maintain a project called Sun One Active Server Pages (aka ChilliSoft ASP) which allowed you to run ASP sites without IIS

There may be some weird and wacky solutions (like a "compiler" to ASP.NET etc) out there, however I really doubt any such thing would be worth it.

I would make more sense to pursue the answer to this question: "Why don't you install IIS on your machine?".

godaddy.

$5/month until you cancel it.

instant gratification

call them now, and then start building your asp app a few hours later.

why hassle with the path you are inclining towards?
