a) You can just rename the server. The old IUSR account will remain, and will 
continue to be used

b) You can manually create this account if you want, but you need to manually 
assign the correct permissions, groups etc.

Subject: IUSR_SERVER

This account is created when IIS is installed, right (actually
IUSR_<SERVERNAME>)? Is there any reason this account can't be manually
created? I have a server that some developers want me to rename to quite
literally SERVER, then reload IIS so the IUSR_SERVER account gets
created. Seems asinine to me....
