PHP and IIS 6

I installed php for iis 6, but if i call a page written in php, it get the
following error:

The page cannot be displayed
You have attempted to execute a CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from
a directory that does not allow programs to be executed.

Please try the following:

* Contact the Web site administrator if you believe this directory
should allow execute access.

If i go and enable script only for the entire site, then i get this error:

Did you install by hand? Because I'm pretty surprised at this basic
setup bug at this point in PHP. You may want to report it to PHP if
you are in this state because of their installer.

It sounds like Web Service Extension for PHP's configured binary,
either CGI or ISAPI, is not existent/enabled. Check the IIS web log
entry for the request for 404 2 1260 and if so, search the web on how
to resolve that.
