Despite its tiny footprint (for example, the executable file size of the Windows version is less than 112 KB); it supports HTTP/1.1, dynamic content generation through CGI/1.1 scripts, Server Side Includes (SSI), custom error pages, and user access control (HTTP authentication/password protected files).
It features also a remote web management interface that makes its configuration as easy as browsing a web site.

On Saturday a power outage killed my PC. Managed to get all the data off it, but am having a “simply awful time”* re-installing everything. Time to visit an ADSL-equipped mate’s place for Windows Updates, me thinks…
