As far as I know, all modules
As far as I know, all modules will "work" with IIS6, but in a few cases, you may be missing certain functionality or you may need to do some extra work to get them to work the way they are intended.
Here are two important and popular modules that either don't work as intended or require special configuration:
Drush
http://drupal.org/project/drush
- There are issues when running on IIS (I'm honestly surprised you can run it at all), though according to Mark Brown (markjbrown), the Microsoft folks are working on improving that.
Backup & Migrate
http://drupal.org/project/backup_migrate
- There are security issues if you install it without manually adding additional security to the server -- the module relies on its ability to write htaccess files and set permissions on files using Apache-specific commands and those functions are not available on IIS in the same way.

what about content_access
what about content_access module ?
does it rely on some apache config files ?
thanks
There are no issues with
There are no issues with Content Access and IIS that I know of. We're running Content Access on several sites on our server without any problems.
If you have questions about specific modules, you can just read the project page for that module and do a search for IIS in the issue queue and that will give you an idea of any known issues.
