If this is setup as folder and all subfolders the following permissions:
Administrator-Full -control

Everyone-Read & Execute
             -List Folder Contents
             -Read
             -Write

And set the shared permissions as everyone full-control. Users can read write and execute but will not be able to delete.
This should work as you need it to.

     is read-only, though when I check the folder, it is not
     marked as such.
