You do not have write permission to one of the directories that the component
is tryign to write to. The best thing is to install "Filemon" (you can
download it from http://sysinternals.com/) and run it for "inetinfo.exe and
dllhost.exe" and then run your site from the browser. Look at the logs in
filemon and look for "access denied"
in the logs. That line will show you where the problem is. Go ahead and give
anonyous user (iusr_xxx) write permission to that directory.
