Hi Dave

The symptoms described in the article
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q249/3/21.ASP are those I
have but I didn't modified the drive letter and I didn't modify the drive
permissions.
The only things I've made is to add 2 groups to the Administrator membership
("Web Anonymous Users" and "Web Applications") and to change IIS security
rules.
I have the same problem with another account which have the "Users" and "Web
Anonymous Users" groups but I can logon with a third account which is only a
member of the "Users" group.

I think that the Web Anonymous group is the origin of the problem.

SInce I can't execute the Computer Management Console with "Run As" to gain
Administrator privileges (I have the error message : "Access to the
specified device,path, or file is denied"), is there a way to remove the
group Web Anonymous Users group for the Administrator Account. It's a
nightmare :-)

Thanks
Faith
