As Andrew points out, migrating to mySQL and PHP would be an ideal solution.
In the short run, you could definitely setup Apache as reverse proxy
(mod_proxy) in front of your IIS. In fact, it is a popular practice to
shield IIS from all those IIS-targeted attacks (code red, Nimda and
whatnot):tuck IIS behind the firewall and let Apache brave the web in the
DMZ.

cheers,
Tony
