> I want to install Symfony on Windows 2003/IIS 6.0/MSSQL
Sorry for the brevity, but it is clear you've not read the docs:
Please do read the manual and search the fora, there is *loads* of info available. You'll find this much quicker than waiting for a reply when your issue is urgent.

If you have symfony running on another machine (I deploy to a production win2k3 machine, but develop on a winxp box) you can just copy the entire php directory over.
You have to then setup iis to run php files (using the isapi extension), and setup the virtual directory that symfony needs (sf).
After that you can just put your project where ever you want and map the web directory as the sites root.
All the symfony commands might not work from the command line (unless you add the php and pear directories that you copied over to the path). But I don't want that stuff runable on the production box any way.
I have found the easiest way is to actually install and use Pear to get smyfony going on any box. And then copy it to where ever you need it.

I don't think i want to go through all that just to test and it might not work then. I was looking for a download and run type of framework. I think it's time to pursue my second option. Zend. I do hope it's simple one. | ||

you should simply use the sandbox : this is the perfect download and run framework. No hassle during installation (a copy/paste)
Upgrading is also just a matter of copy/paste (providing that you do not hack the core files of symfony)
do not be heretic, do not use zend

I think you are missing one of the most important parts of it.
It is a download and run option.
You are just choosing to ignore the download part.
Really after installing php, typing go-pear and then following the instructions to install pear, and then typing pear install symfony/symfony is about as easy as it gets (well also doing a pear channel-discover or what ever, but all thats documented in the install instructions that are VERY well laid out on the symfony site).
Once you have it installed once its easy to copy around. And it will work. Done it many times.
You are leaving out the part where having the support libraries is important. Pear is like the MSI you would get from zend. Just a few more steps. But a lot cleaner, and it works just as well.
Don't give up on the pony. It is a VERY good framework.

Scroll down to the "Installing the Symfony PEAR Package" part.
Pear is PART of php. It can provide you with SO many different libraries that are useful when developing stuff, that not installing it or including it almost is a shame.
