Problem running ASP

I have Visual Studio 2005 on two separate machines. I noticed today that I
cannot run ASP.NET applications on either machine. I get the message "Unable
to start debugging on the web server. The operation has timed out".

Also whenever I try to create a new project I now get "Configuring website
to ASP.NET 2.0 failed. You may need to manually configure this site for
ASP.NET 2.0 in order for your site to run correctly."

I can only assume this has been cause by an update (I have automatic updates
turned on) since it occurred on two differenct machines at the same when I
have not installed anything or made any changes to either one.

Does anyone know what might have caused this problem and how to fix it?

Hmm, sounds weird, but then again, it's software. :-) Anyway, if you open
IIS, and show the properties for the virtual site/folder, is the ASP.NET tab
shown, and if so, what .NET Framework version is displayed? If the wrong
version is displayed, try changing it.

You might neede to manually register the ASP.NET with IIS, which can be done
from the command line by executing aspnet_regiis -i. You might want to open
the Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt for this purpose rather than the
standard command prompt, as it will have the path for aspnet_regiis.exe set.
 
In IIS, the ASP.NET tab for my virtual directory shows ASP.NET version
2.0.50727.

I can hit any html page on the virtual directory with no problem, but
everything times out when I try to hit an aspx page. I'm stumped.
