Great!
It's the simple things which stump us the most.
Sometimes I've stared at screens and googled for hours,
getting exactly nowhere but if I show the problem to someone
else, or even if I just take a break for a while, the answer
appears almost automagically.

You said you had done this :
When I right-click the file in question and select the Security tab ASP.NET is not
listed under User Names ... but Internet Guest
Account and Launch IIS Process Account are listed
Once you do that...do you see an "Add" button ?
Clicking the "Add" button starts the process of adding
an account to the list of accounts permitted to access that file.

There is not "ASP.NET" account.
There *is* an "ASPNET" account under Windows XP, though,
but it only works for ASP.NET if you are not impersonating.
Are you impersonating ?
Did you try to "add" the ASPNET account to the ACLs ?
