Did you try to load the KML file directly in the browser as well? 
http://angeloelmi.com/kml/sites.kml
You'll get a 404 error. If your web server can't find it, how can anyone 
find it? ;-)

However, http://angeloelmi.com/kml/ does give a directory listing. It 
seems that you have a permission issue: IIS is not allowed to read the 
files in the /kml directory (yes, it is allowed to list them but not 
read them).

Once you have solved this issue, it will be easier for others to see 
what causes 1).
