Exclamation Help!! Error: You are not authorized to view this page

In short, I messed something up with permissions and now I can not view my webpage because of the error, "You are not authorized to view this page".

After whatever change I made, nobody could access anything on the website. I took out the anonymous account Windows provided and created a new user with "Read and Execute, List Folder Contents, Read" rights on the website folder. I am using that user as my anonymous account, and that at least enabled me to view the webpage.

However, I still have a few subdirectories that I am getting the "You are not authorized to view this page". I can not figure out what I did wrong, and I don't think there is a "go back" feature in Windows Server.

I am using Windows Sever 2003, with IIS 6.0.
The web domain is: http://www.go2boss.com
Example of URL not working: http://www.go2boss.com/registrar/files

If someone could walk me through getting everything back the way it should be it would be MUCH appreciated. Please let me know! Thank you!

My problem seemed to be that I had an account that was previously the owner to a lot of the folders/files. That account was deleted awhile ago but the changes didn't really take effect until I changed some file permissions (today). I took away all owner privs from that one user and gave them to the current administrator account, restored all security settings to default using This Link and everything is working fine again.
