Access to the specified path or file is denied

[Jennifer G]

Error "Access to the specified path or file is denied"
appears when trying to open a file from an internet site.
The referenced path is my profile directory on windows nt
4.0 of which I have full control. Microsoft article
Q222661 documents this as a known issue and suggests
upgrading to the latest service pack for IE. I upgraded
from IE5.5 sp2 to IE6 sp1 and I still receive the error.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Quoted from the article. Contact MS and just ask for this fix nothing else.
Make sure and there will not be any charges.
