I've started all over, with a new home directory for ubb in hopes that posters won't be able to find it.

All I can think is that the permissions we too permissive.
The insteructions say read, write, execute, and delete.
Those are dandy for unix I suppose, but what exactly are the permissions for Windows?

For instance, in windows you have:
Full
Modify
Read & Execute
List Folder Contents
Read
Write


So when the instructions say: read, write, execute, and delete
Is that in Windows terms:

Modify
Read & Execute
List Folder Contents
Read
Write

?

Is Delete modify?
Also, "List Folder Contents" is turned on automatically when you turn on "Read & Execute" ..

So orignally, I had set Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder, Contents, Read, and Write to satisfy the instructions. I however now think that maybe these were too permissive and that's how someone got in there and hacked my board.

Any help here would be greatly appriciated.
