I'd like to set permissions on one of my installed directories to deny  
creating files within it, deleting files (for other than installer...  
though this isn't as needed), and altering files within it.

I'm struggling to get Permission/PermissionEx to work, particularly  
because it either prevents me from listing files... (only has  
Administrators, Everyone, and SYSTEM in the permission list) or allows  
nearly everyone to perform actions except for the 'Everyone' class...

My permission lines have been these (either w/ util:PermissionEx or  
Permission ... been jumping between them):

        <util:PermissionEx User="Everyone" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes"  
ReadExtendedAttributes="yes" ReadPermission="yes" Traverse="yes"  
CreateFile="no" GenericWrite="no" />
        <util:PermissionEx User="Administrators" Read="yes"  
ReadAttributes="yes" ReadExtendedAttributes="yes" ReadPermission="yes"  
Traverse="yes" CreateFile="no" GenericWrite="no" />

I've also tried w/o the 'GenericWrite' and marking Write/ 
WriteAttributes/etc with no real change...

Any thoughts?

I believe I saw something that might be relevant... an enhanced  
PermissionEx with 'deny' as an option... this is probably what I  
really want to do...
