Access to the path is denied

I have installed an ASP.NET application on my laptop that is running Windows XP Professional.
When I try to open the app I get the error message below.
I have granted access to anonymous users.
The solution mentioned, "To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access." does not work for me because in XP Pro there is no Security tab on the Propertis dialog box of the folder.

How do I resolve this problem?


Error details:

 
Server Error in '/iDesk' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Access to the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\iDesk\Log\ErrorLog2006-5-23.txt' is denied.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\iDesk\Log\ErrorLog2006-5-23.txt' is denied.

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.

To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.
