Permissions problems

I am using windows xp pro with sp2 and trying to alter my file
permissions in the "All users" folder so that the limited users on my
computer can't delete the files, just read them. This works, but
suddenly I can't delete them either.
The way it's set up is:
Administrators - Full control
Users - Can read and execute, all others (including delete and delete
subfolders) denied.
This is set on the "All users" folder and copied to all child objects
within that folder.
Though this sets it up correctly for limited users (after allowing
everyone access to "All Users\Application
Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA\opa11.dat" so that MO will work), the
administrator user seems to get the same restrictions as normal users
in that folder, even though I checked and my Admin user area is ONLY a
member of the "Administrators" group and not the "Users" group, yet it
wont let me delete the files. Does Windows xp consider Administrators
to be in the "Users" group even though you've taken them out of it? It
would seem that way but that doesn't seem right to me. Anyone know
about this and how to get around it?
