Problem with Servers.... NO access due to ACL

I'm running windows 2003 enterprise server w/IIS6 and it keeps coming up with
this error no matter what i try.... would anyone happen to know what i can
do... if i type JUST http://localhost it works fine... but if i try to move
to something like http://localhost/files it pops up a Username and password
box... if anyone knows what i can do PLEASE let me know... i'm losing money
since my services arn't online. Everything worked great on WinXP Pro. but
now i need more so any help would be appreciated.

I downloaded all updates from Windowsupdate.com so that isnt it.

let me know...

Hello,

Please make sure that your anonymous account (typically IUSR_MachineName)
has NTFS permissions to the files/folders. You can set the NTFS permissions
by using Windows Explorer.
