Thank you all for your replies. I know there is Auditing feature in
Windows 2003 which will show up in event logs.
But unfortunately i missed to add this point that we are looking for
some software which will alert us via email when some folder/ file is
deleted. Both open source and commercial tools are fine.

Thanks.

Hi.

Check out OSSEC: http://www.ossec.net

Combining Windows built-in auditing with some custom OSSEC rules
should accomplish what you are looking to do.

Otherwise here are some commerical tools:

Or as Scott mentioned, roll your own custom solution with VB.

Cheers!
