Can't create a new web site in IIS

Question

I want to add a new web site to my IIS 5.1 server.

I start the IIS MMC snap in, I select "Web Sites" from the tree and right click. "New" is not on the menu. Any idea why it's missing?

I am a local administrator of this machine.

You can create website only on server edition. If your are on a XP it's perfectly normal.
