Prior to installing the latest patches I could put a .EXE
in my web directory and then launch that .EXE from a
webpage. Now all I get is a 403.1 unauthorized challenge
to my NT permissions. I put them in but they do not work
and I am the admin on the box.

Any ideas how to get around this?

What are the IIS settings for the Web site / Virtual
directory?
If Anon. security access, then you may need to specify
IUSR_... or IWAM_... user access to the .EXE.
Also, might need to set Executable permissions to "Scripts
and Executables"

IIS is set to Anon. and it is setup for scripts and
executables. It was working fine until I installed SP4
and the last round of MS patches. So I am thinking that
something in ther flipped the switch to off because it was
a security hole.

How do I set IUSR_ and IWAM_ to access EXE?
