Norman,
What permissions do the users have to the parent directory ? I
suspect that if you give the site users at least List access to the
root directory the problem will go away. Maybe....
Another way of testing this is to temporarily remove the Everyone
group from the Bypass Traversal Checking policy - I imagine your sites
would stop working if you did this which would indicate a problem with
permissions higher up in the file system directory.
This KB article explains the above a bit more clearly than I just did
:

Checking Policy
