Directory access problem

I have a problem resticting access to a folder on my company intranet. If I log onto the Intranet Server (Windows 2000 Server) and change the access on a particular folder, everyone can still gain access to it via the Intranet, even though I have only added a few user names to the folders permissions.
I have messed around with this for a while now and its only when I take out the administrator user name from the folders permissions list that other users are restricted.

I would leave it like this but when I'm using Frontpage (2002) from my PC I cannot see the pages inside that folder until I add the administrator to the permissions again. This really confuses me as my name is already in the permissions list with full access.

I should add that its not the administrator group that I am talking about here, its the actual administrator logon to my domain, I cannot see how other network logon's are effected when I add/remove it from folder's permissions.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

M.
