An FYI .. Apache is the most widely used webserver (in the world) which I am sure you know about. IIS on Microsoft has had many critical bugs in the past you can google them for your information. AND it does makes a difference practically or otherwise if you put people at risk by using infrastructure that can easily sabotage your mission. My intention is not to criticize M$, but atleast one does not expects sub-optimal solution for critical purposes.
