## Lightweight Web Servers For Windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Win32 Clients the ASP.NET Cassini web server (http://www.asp.net/Projects/Cassini/Download/download.aspx?tabindex=0&tabid=1) can be used as a lightweight web server. I do not know the level of anonymity it provides out of the box so this should be investigated thoroughly before relying on it. The main thing is that this is the most lightweight web server that I am aware of for the Windows O/S.

|
|
|
|
|
You will need to install the Microsoft.Net framework also to make this work since this web server is capable of processing aspx pages.

|
```
|
|
|
The easiest way to trigger this server is by placing a batch file in the directory where the CassiniWebServer application is installed:

|
|
This is the most important line that needs to be present in that batch file:

### Display

If everything goes well you should see a window that displays something like this (upon executing sample batch file):
