Vista - No access to sql serevr database files in Windows Vista

Using Windows Visat RTM, Visual Studio .Net 2005 SP1 and SQL Server Express
SP

When trying to run a website that uses a attachdb file in the
connectionstring I get this error:
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file
e:\website\site1\app_data\site_db.mdf failed. A database with the same name
exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.

I've tried giving it admin rights and taking ownership, but no difference.
I also get 'access denied' when trying to copy, delete and so on in Windows
Explorer.

Any suggestions?

You don't mention if your SQL Server Express is at SP1 or not. It needs to
be at least SP1 to be Vista compatible.
Check here for information on running SQL Server on Vista (and Longhorn too)
