denied everyone access: how to fix?

[zuke]

Hello,

A real dumb one here: I was attempting to fine tune the security settings
and denied the everyone group access to a folder. I've admin rights but am
unable to change any settings now. Any suggestions?

I did this once before years ago on NT, but cannopt remember how to get
around it.

As a local administrator you can take ownership.
Explorer|"folder"|File|Properties|Security|Advanced|Owner and take
ownership.
