I got the same problem. I dont have the IIS admin tool(Internet Information Services Manager) so I googled it and read that they took IIS out of XP Home and its only for XP Pro, so if your running XP Home like me that might be the problem. if not I hope someone knows the fix

Label

Get All Media (XML) (HTML)
Get Media by Artist (XML) (HTML)
Get Media by Genre (XML) (HTML)
