I have a small server I use for my home business and use it mainly for anyone who needs to send a large file that will not go through email.

From time to time I forget and leave this open (I know this is stupid but I thought I could just erase anything that was put there because the small drive would fill up real soon).

I have spent 2 days researching this and cannot find any reference of how to correct this. I did find some reference to looking at the security tab for these files but the security tab is missing! I found some tools which are supposed to set owners for files and they don't work on these files. Here is the log from where the hacker attacked below. Any help would be appreciated. I don't want to have to rebuild my server if possible:
