entire .NET movement.

ISPs or hosts? Many hosts don't support ASP.NET, but those are most
likely the same ones that don't support ASP either, because they're
all *nix servers (sans Chilisoft) or something along those lines. As
far as Windows-based hosting, hosts that do not offer ASP.NET support
will have to if they intend to retain customers and attract new ones.

I assume when you say "some ISP's" you mean web hosting companies? The
technology used to build a web application is irrelevant to an ISP.

When I was looking for a Classic ASP hosting company in the UK, I found
most of the ones I looked at offer .Net hosting too. It all seemed to
depend on whether they were running Windows 2003 servers.

A UK-restricted google for "dot net hosting" returns about a quarter of
a million results.

..NET is firmly established. Hosting companies may not offer it for
two reasons:

1) They're Unix-based hosts.

2) They're offering ultra-discount hosting.

Find a different hosting company, there are about a bazillion
supporting ASP and ASP.NET (Not mutually exclusive).
