Error Type:

Tha's a generic permissions error. Doesn't only apply to the db itself, but also to objects within or used by the db.
http://www.aspfaq.com/search.asp?q=0x80004005&type=ALL&category=0&numDays=0&order=1 - http://www.aspfaq.com/search.asp?q=0x80004005&type=ALL&category=0&numDays=0&order=1  pretty much covers most of the situations that it could apply to.
 
Also, try setting your av software to allow scripts to run.
IIRC, some of the recent XP security patches had something to do with mdb files as well.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

I've had that problem a lot. All I needed to solve was to change the permissions in the IIS console to full read write access and the problem went away.
 
Give it a go. That should help you out.
