I believe I read in the Python 2.0 release notes that CGIHTTPServer now
works on Windows. What version of Python are you using? You can get the
2.0 final release here:
  http://www.pythonlabs.com/products/python2.0/

Also, you can run Apache on Windows (I do).
  http://httpd.apache.org/

Also, you should check out Webware for Python. It's broken into
components so you can bite off as much or as little as you would like.
It includes an app server, CGI wrapper, servlets, Python Server Pages,
etc.
