This is why I asked you the follwing question a few posts ago:

What does "ls -l /home/dave/web_sites" give you?

You should not need to adjust permisions on /home/dave , but certainly
will have to adust them for /home/dave/web_sites

Now, if you want to avoid this problem any further have a look at
(assuming you are using Apache 2):
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/public_html.html
