>From what I've gathered google'ing, the group "Everyone" encompasses every
user on the system. Does that include the IUSR_ account? And if it does,
would it be recommended that I change the permissions on /every/ file on the
system with the (exception of the web folders) to "Authenticated Users"?
And to go with my first question: what users are considered Authenticated?

Thanks,
