Cannot create offline cache (error while creating asp.net project)

After sitting infront of computer for 2 hours and trying to solve this crazy error which was generated each time I try to create asp.net application.

"Unable to create the offline cache in c:\inetpub\Username\wwwroot"

It really is annoying and the this is a bug in Vs.net which will be fixed in Vs.net 2005. I solved this problem by moving my directory outside the wwwroot. So I create the project in C:\inetput and it works.

Some people also solve this problem by installing Visual Studio.net 2003 from scratch.

This is really a weird issue with visual studio.

After doing lots of R&D I found this post on S.O.
