Description:-Provides network connections and communications. The workstation service is a user-mode wrapper for the Microsoft Networks redirector. It loads and performs configuration functions for the redirector, provides support for making network connections to remote servers, provides support for the WNet APIs and furnishes redirector statistics.
If this service is stopped, you will no longer be able to establish connections to remote servers to access files and named-pipes. This will also prevent accessing files/printers stored on other machines. Stopping or disabling this service does not affect TCP/HTTP connectivity so internet browsing and Web Client access will still work. Once this service is stopped, all of the dependent services will not be able to start.

Description:-This service provides HTTP services for applications on the Windows platform. The service contains a process manager and a configuration manager. The process manager controls the processes in which custom applications and simple Web sites reside. The configuration manager reads the stored system configuration and ensures that Windows is configured to route HTTP requests to the appropriate application pools or operating system processes.
This service can monitor the processes in which custom applications reside and provide recycling services for these applications. Recycling is a configuration property of an application pool and can be done on the basis of memory limits, request limits, processing time, or time of day. The service will queue HTTP requests if custom applications stop responding, and will also attempt to restart custom applications.
If this service is stopped or disabled, the operating system will no longer be able to serve Web pages or requests.
Note: On Windows 2000 Server, Advanced Server and Datacenter Server, Internet Information Server was installed by default. This has changed on Windows . IIS is installed by default only on the Windows Server 2003, Web Edition product.
