Re: Static files return HTTP 404

Its been a while since I installed .net but I think there are user accounts
that you have to create when you install.
Reading the MS article on 404 errors and static files seems to suggest that
you are browsing the web on a different account from what you have logged on
to.

I suggest finding the .net setup exe and starting it up again. There are
options there to repair or re-install. I think both will take you to a
dialog to setup developer accounts for .net.

Open up your computer management console (My Computer\Manage) and select the
'Local Users and Groups\Users' node. On my machine (win2k) there are a
number of .net accounts that were created during setup

- ACTUser - Application Center Test Account
-ASPNET - ASP.NET Machine Account
and
-SQLDebugger - SQL Debugger

also make sure your own user account is a member of VS Developers group.

I haven't tested this and my advice comes with no guarantees... Good luck
