The file is a custom template for Microsoft Outlook signature. Thus, it has to be in a certain folder and this folder will have a different location if the user has Windows 7 vs Windows XP.
I wrote a ASP.NET page that captures the user that is logged in and use WebClient.DownloadFile to download the file. However, I am getting an access is denied error. Apparently my server doesn't have access to write to the user's folder. My questions are.
