I have a really annoying problem on 3 machines (one of which is a fresh
install) all of which I develop without administrator privileges.  Two of
the machines have VB6 as well as VS.NET 2003, along with the MSDN Library
(and this occurs with Jan 2004 and Oct 2003.)

Sometimes when browsing the MSDN docs, a requester pops up stating that
VS.NET is preparing to install; a similar thing happens when opening VB6 and
building a deployment package in VS.NET.  Each time, the error is the same,
and you have to cancel the requester about three times per go to continue.

 "Error 1926. Could not set file security for file
  'c:\inetpub\wwwroot'.  Error 80070005.  Verify that you
  have sufficient privileges to modify security permissions
  for this file."

Obviously, security can't be changed since I have no admin privs on that
folder!  So, I have 2 questions:
1) What is happening here?  Why does VB6, MSDN and VS.NET try to modify the
privileges on the wwwroot folder when I'm not doing anything remotely
related to web development,
2) How do I fix this, please?
