Access is denied to a file in Inetpub/wwwroot/... for pptx

Got Access is denied to a file in Inetpub/wwwroot/... (IIS 6) for opening a .pptx file. However, it is OK for opening a .pdf file in the exactly same location. I checked the IIS MIME and saw the difference in MIME type, such as
.pptx - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
.pdf - application/pdf
What should I do to make the file accessible? Thanks for any hint.
