With Simple File Sharing disabled, you can quickly fix it by resetting the permissions.  Right click the shared folder, Properties, Security tab, Advanced, tick the box to "Replace permission entries on all child objects..." and Apply.  You will be prompted to confirm and permissions on everything in the folder will be reset.
Thanks, that did the trick :)

The weird thing is that these file were downloaded over the internet using Firefox.
Afaik, Firefox downloads the file first in the temp directory and when it finishes it moves it to the directory you have chosen.

If my %temp% directory was restrictive, wouldn't all the files downloaded from firefox be set with those permissions?
Why were some files still accessible?
I don't remember downloading them and then moving them to that directory... :-/


Anyway, thanks for the help :)
