XML Page cannot be displayed

When I open my website, I get a directory, which I really don't want. I want
it to open default.aspx. But when I click on the default.aspx link, I get
this error:
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and
then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource
'http://70.136.170.105/Default.aspx'. Line 1, Posi...

<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb"
Inherits="_Default" %>
-^

This is the beginning of the ASP code:

<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb"
Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<title>ACS Home Page</title>

I am fairly new to ASP (being strictly a VB Windows programmer).

Is there something I missed here?

Thanks for the help.

Make sure ASP.NET is enabled on that web server, the above looks as if
the Default.aspx is not executed on the server but simply served as a
file to the browser.

Martin,

I have been having problems with the IWAM account, the metadata, etc and I
think I finally have these problems solved.

Now, being new to this, how do I enable ASP.Net on the server? I have
already run the aspnet_iisreg -i utility.

Actually I just did run aspnet_regiis and now I am back to the old error from
the event viewer:
