The website is running in the default app pool under the predefined security account "Network Service".
Are you suggesting that I need to give that user read/write permission on the C:\Program Files\Helicon\ISAPI_Rewrite directory? Note that nothing is showing up in the event log. Another potential solution: do I need to explicitly allow the extension under IIS6's "Web Service Extension" listing?

I have it working on win2k3 with cf on standalone servers as well as clustered jrun with SAN disks - a nightmare to get to the bottom of the problem but got there in the end, usually it's a permission thing to get it playing nicely. john.
