NTFS security trouble

[TSMJ]

Hi everyone!
I rescently reinstalled NT Server on a machine, and it has decided to give me "access denied" messages every time I want to open a program or folder on my second HDD. Some files are accessible, others you can go into 'properties' and change the permissions and it'll let you in - and others i am completely locked out of when using the Administrator account.

Any help is appreciated, just wondering if there was some utility that I could use to re-set all the permissions... I know there is a NT password changer - hoping someone would know about something similar which could sort me out.

Thanks

Have you tried the ownership/take control option yet? $cd /pub

No I havent - how would I use that?

Ah, no... OK - I've got it! I'd seen that button about 3million times before and never thought to click on it...

Sorted - thanks dude [dude]
