Probably have to take ownership of the files/folders before you can set security permissions on them. This is available by pressing the advanced button on the security tab, then go the ownership tab on the advanced window.

For both permissions and ownership i'd always go the the advanced screen and check the box that says "replace owner/permissions on subcontainers and objects".
