PHP/APACHE/MYSQL = open source solution, meaning they are available for free download. They will run in both Microsoft-based servers and Unix/Linux-based servers.
By being open source, there are quite a few no-cost open-source solutions and programming tools that will run on this set-up such as content management systems (Joomla!, Drupal) and shopping carts (VirtueMart - runs on Joomla!). PHP/APACHE/MYSQL is widely supported by by internet hosting providers so transporting your site from one host to another should not be a problem.
ASP/IIS/MS-SQL = A proprietary commercial solution provided by Microsoft. I have used both and prefer programming in PHP. I would suggest going with the open-source solution unless you have a compelling reason to use the proprietary Microsoft one.

How does one create a web page that allows people to sign up and create member profiles?
PHP. Alright, I'm a PHP programmer, so I might be biased. No matter what, you're going to need a server-side language to do this. ASP, JSP, Ruby, Python, or Perl are all just as useful as PHP when it comes to doing what you want. You'll also likely want a database. My suggestion would be MySQL, but SQLite is gaining ground. Essentially, it depends on your other technology choices. ASP like MSSQL, for instance, better than MySQL.

Which is better PHP or ASP?
PHP is easier to learn, there is a lot of community based help, scripts, like phpBB (In my opinion, the best one), are more common, so it is likely that if you encounter a problem, someone else will have already have encountered it (and hopefully) been able to fix it. It is possible to install on windows (for development only, you would have to be mad to host live websites on Microsoft), on servers like IIS 5.1 (The one that comes with XP Professional), and on XAMPP. PHP supports MySQL by default, I have got MySQL working through ASP with some research though. Overall, PHP is certainly the best choice, though if you have the option, choose both.
