permissions for file upload?

[Mad Scientist Jr]

i have a file upload control on a page (running on my machine at
localhost), and am trying to get it to accept the file and save it to
an "upload" folder, but am getting this error:

Access to the path "d:\inetpub\wwwroot\TestSite\uploads\image1.jpg"
is denied.

what do i need to do to give ASP.NET access to read/write/etc from a
folder?

thanks to anyone who can offer some advice

Make sure that the machine\aspnet account has write access to this folder.

forgive my ignorance, but how do i do this?
i don't know much about the administration side of things in XP.
thankx
