    The aspnet_wp user that ASP.NET uses has limited privileges. You can
    either change the user that ASP.NET runs under in your machine.config
    (<processModel> section), or give aspnet_wp user access to the network
    drive through network security.

    This was changed since 'legacy' versions of ASP, to keep malicious code
    from running under the SYSTEM account....
