IUSR account

Hi,
I have a web app that uses an access database. I keep getting the 'Operation must use an updateable query' error when I test updating the database on the live site - although it works perfectly on the localhost. I know this is to do with the permissions for my IUSR account, and that I should rightclick properties on the database folder and set IUSR as read/modify/write permissions.

I am using Windows XP Pro and I have IIS 5 installed.

My problem is when I right click properties on the database folder the properties window only has the following tabs - General/Sharing/WebSharing/Customized - none of which allow me to set the IUSR permissions.

My disk is formatted to FAT32. Is this the problem? Or is it something else that I am forgetting? Any help would stop me going crazy... Thanks
