WAS was introduced in version 6.0 of Windows, or Server 2008 and Windows Vista.

Unfortunately it is not available for Windows XP or Server 2003. You'll need to upgrade your operating system to one that supports IIS 7.0. It is not available as a separate component.

@user1573747 Unfortunately not. It is part of the operating system. – vcsjones Aug 07 '12 at 15:19
