Strange folder security problem Peter Nguyen 10-04-2006

I have a strange folder security problem...I've denied everyone access to a
private folder and only allowed myself full access to this folder...Users
get an 'Access Denied' message as expected when they try to open it or try
to save a file into it...But the funny thing is, they can just drag and drop
another file/folder into this private folder w/o any problems...Running
Windws 2003 Standard w/ SP1 and all updates...Any suggestions would be
appreciated...Thanks.
