NTFS file system is required to set security permissions.
I disagree with the approach of using the Everyone account, from a security
perspective.
Your anonymous user [IUSR_COMPUTERNAME] needs 'modify' permissions.
Your administrative account(s) need(s) 'Full' permissions.
The SYSTEM account needs 'Full' permissions.
