OK, well I have same two questions as in my prior reply but I will be more specific. ;-)

How did you implement impersonation? Did you enable the option in web.config? Are you impersonating
the authenticated user (via Integrated Windows or Basic auth)?

Where are the files located? Are they on the web server or a remote network machine?
