Hi,

the logged in user's account permissions will be used when File.Exists is
called.

Cheers,

By default the ASPNET user account will be used. This account is locked
down and does not have access to most directories by default.

Note: In Windows Server 2003 the "Network Service" user account is used
instead of ASPNET.

That would be the account that ASP.Net is running under....

Incorrect, but a really good wild guess. Someday a use may be found for such
guesswork. Unfortunately, the state of programming technology at this point
doesn't handle it very well.
