    I have been struggling with my ASP.NET (V1.1 sp1) websites getting an 'Access
    Denied' message.

    I have track down the problem (I think) to the IIS Connection Pools. Most
    MS Info suggests keeping the 'Identity' set as 'Network Service' to provide
    greater security.

    However, I have found that if I change the Identity to 'Local Service' my
    websites now work! What am I missing? Why does setying connection pool
    'Identity' set as 'Network Service' cause an 'Access Denied' message?

    Thanks for your help!
