I'd second Doug's suggestion that you do a clean install instead of an
upgrade. However, I wouldn't recommend trying to copy IIS data from the
registry. First, IIS doesn't store significant data in the registry since
IIS 3; instead, it uses something called the Metabase. The Metabase data
can't be directly imported into IIS 5 from IIS 4, either, I don't think.

You might find this tool useful:

For the CF settings, you can backup and restore selected registry keys for
that, if you're using CF 5 or earlier. Or, if you're using CF 5, you could
use the Archive functionality within the CF Administrator.
