MS Access is not designed for multiple users. If you are using it for a
web site you are going to have all sorts of problems. In most cases,
people that design websites can use XML, MySQL, MSDE (the developers
version of SQL 2000) or some other database.

Do not use MS Access for a multiuser database.
