SYMPTOMS
========
An attempt to delete a directory and all of its files succeeds, even when you
have only Read permission to access the files.
CAUSE
=====
If you have Full Control permission for a directory, you have an implied
FILE_DELETE_CHILD permission. This permission enables you to delete a directory
and all the files it contains (its children), even if the files are read-only.
RESOLUTION
==========
To remove file delete privileges, remove Full Control privilege from the
directory, and grant each privilege in the Other field of the Special Access
menu.
