Ok this is frustrating....
On my local desktop - running IIS 7 - my app pool is running as ApplicationPoolIdentity 
I have heard that this maps to either NETWORK SERVICE or IIS_USRS.  So I granted both of these godlike powers in my website folder.  There is no such user as ApplicationPoolIdentity.  Why would Microsoft make a user that does not exist?  Is it a real user, or something else?  How do I grant it the perms it needs to serve my web page?  How can I even find out what user it thinks is failing?

Module IIS Web Core Notification Unknown Handler Not yet determined Error Code 0x80070005 Config Error Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions ...
