Nevermind. I finally figured it out. I found out how to replace the ownership while in Vista. This is weird shit. I never even realized that windows had a file system feature like this.

My sister fubared her windows login accounts on her computer. Her old administrator account is gone but the permissions on the folders for my documents/desktop under the administrator folder for the old account are still set to the old administrator and windows is being a pain in the ass about accessing them. I can view and open them in Linux (but can't copy for some reason) and I can see the files in Vista (both are impossible in XP, her and my normal OS), but I can't do crap because it refuses to let me change the "owner" of this administrator folder.

How do I nuke the old "ownership" of the now unassociated administrator folder? I hope this makes sense.
