Jim,

OK, I've done some experimenting of my own. I have found that if I put the
ASPNET user into my machine's local Administrators group, that will "fix"
the problem. However, I strongly suspect that adding the ASPNET user to the
Administrators group is NOT a good idea.

So, the question is, what is it that ASPNET needs permissions to, that it
doesn't have permissions too (so that I can take ASPNET out of my local
Administrators group)?
