My understanding of it is that if you have a directory called c:
\AdminsOnly that only the admins have permissions to and users have
Bypass Traverse Checking, and a subdirectory of c:\AdminsOnly\UsersAsWell
that the users have full permissions to then the users cannot browse to
the UsersAsWell folder by clicking c:\, then AdminsOnly then UsersAsWell
in explorer as they do not have permission to view directory listing in
the AdminsOnly folder.
The only way to get to the UsersAsWell folder would be to type 'c:
\AdminsOnly\UsersAsWell in the address bar of explorer, do a 'CD c:
\AdminsOnly\UsersAsWell' from a command prompt, or have a shortcut
directly to c:\AdminsOnly\UsersAsWell.
ie: Don't do anything that enters the AdminsOnly folder.
