The bets cure for your blues is "Apache" It is much better at 
integrating webservers from all over the place than IIS.

You need to install Apcahe on port 80, Zope on port 8080 and move IIS to 
port 81

Then you can talk to both your Zope and IIS through the Apache at port 
80 using rewrite rules. From the outside alle three servers will seem 
like one. A dedicated webserver with 256 MB of ram should handle it 
nicely. 128 MB might be enough.

I have is set up and it's not that difficult.
