1) Create a virtual directory in IIS that points to e:\images.  Call it 
whatever you like, but for this case we will call it "eImages".

2) Ensure that the identity that is running the application pool of the 
website/web application has read folder contents to the path e:\images.  This 
is the "Network Service" account by default for IIS 6.  

3) If you are using anonymous authentication, the identity of the anonymous 
user must also have read privileges to the e:\images location.  This is usually 
"IUSR_<machinename>"

4) Finally, when referring to the images in your webpage, it is 
"http://website.com/eImages/image.jpg";, or just "/eImages/image.jpg".
