IIS Error

Often I blog things so that I can stop searching for them. I run across this error all the time...and then have to search for the KB with the fix.

When opening IIS Manager you click on the Web Sites folder and receive the following error: The path specified cannot be used at this time.

The only temporary solution I have found is to perform an IISRESET which is a drag, because the site is usually working fine. The patch information is here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946517

You can also restart the SharePoint Timer service to fix this issue. Hopefully the Hotfix works now! I've run into this issue at lots of different clients.

True, but that only works for a while. This hot fix is the only solution that I have found.
