   Hi, I'm using IIS 7.5 on Windows 7 and have managed to make the URL rewrite to work by following this guide: http://codex.wordpress.org/Permalinks
   However, uploaded images do not show. After trying to view images directly i get the following error:

   HTTP Error 500.50 - URL Rewrite Module Error.
   Module RewriteModule
   Notification BeginRequest
   Handler StaticFile
   Error Code 0x80070005

   This link is mentioned on the forum as the solution to the problem, but I can't access the site.

   What should I do now?

   Thanks, it seems to work now after setting the permissions of user IUSR to the wp-content folder. But it seems weird because everything works OK when the URL Rewrite module is not used. :/

   I was hoping that someone would write why do I need to set those permissions when using URL Rewrite, yet everything works like it should with standard permalinks.
