IIS Directory/File writing trouble

Greetings,

I've been having this problem for a while with IIS now and I can't seem to find my
answer anywhere.

I wrote an image browser which creates thumbnails for each image inputted in the
script. However, in order to do that, I must have writing privileges for the thumbnails
directory.

In IIS configuration, I made sure the specific directory had read/write permissions.
Furthermore, my user IUSR_MACHINE# is allowed to access the directory, and connection
is set to anonymous !!

Here's PHP output :
Warning: imagepng() [function.imagepng]: Unable to open 'images/thumbnails/FOND.jpg-tb.png' for writing in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WEBSITE\imagebrowser.php

Would anybody know what I'm doing wrong ?

Thanks !

have you taken off simple file sharing in windows?

tools>folder options>view

then right click the folder you have in wwwroot and click propperties then check on the security tab that you can write.
