You should also check the NTFS permissions on the directory and files in your web site itself. The easiest way to determine if this is the problem is by giving Everyone READ access. Test it. Then remove the Everyone entry. If that had solved the problem, find out what user account the IIS application pool hosting your web app uses, and add that user account to the NTFS permissions list giving that user Read access.
