Forget IIS. JSP/Servlets are perfectly supported by free Java-only servlet
containers like Tomcat or Jetty. Tomcat is widely used and can de dowloaded
from the Apache website. I personally prefer Jetty because it is more
lightweight and faster. The mailing lists offer very good and prompt support
on all levels. Jetty can be downloaded from http://www.mortbay.org.

Servlet containers can serve static content also but for huge loads I would
recommend Apache.
