Funny, this my first post here. :) I came across this site seeing it highlighted in a recent article. As far as classic asp places, forums.iis.net is a good place for ASP questions, a site I started "back in the day"
has forums and I think 4guysfromrolla.com has forums too. I thought the MS groups died off. The only real useful one "for me at least" was the SMTP group, a guy who used to hang there was a wizard.
