Why is ASP.NET using C:\Windows\Temp?

[ssg31415926]

I've needed to give IIS_WPG Modify permissions on C:\Windows\Temp to
get it a web service to work?

Is this normal?

Hi ssg31415926,

Your site probably has been recompiled and need temp-storage to store temporary
..dll's during this process.

Else the problem is ? You could use a tool such as
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/FileAndDisk/Filemon.mspx to
check what happens exactly.

For example a OLEDB provider could use c:\windows\temp for its temporary
files etc...

See :

%SystemRoot%\Temp needs read/write/delete permissions granted
to the ASP.NET process account whenever the application uses Web services.
