Taking note of your 2nd post I set a folder for comments to just /zqu7d4, and created the folder in the website root with full access rights for IIS_IUSRS and this works.

I am now experimenting with reducing IIS_IUSER access rights to just read/write.
Thank you for the hint to my error.
I wish WebSite X5 did not force us to have writeable files with the website folder tree. This can seriously compromise the security of a site.
