Important!  
Groups or users granted Full Control permission on a folder can delete any files in that folder regardless of the permissions protecting the file.
 
 
Additional considerations
Although List Folder Contents and Read and Execute appear to have the same special permissions, these access permissions  are inherited differently. List Folder Contents is inherited by folders but not files, and it should only appear when you view folder permissions. Read and Execute is inherited by both folders & files and is always present when you view folder or file permissions.
 
In (10, 8.1, 7) of Windows, the Everyone group does not include the Anonymous Logon group by default, so permissions applied to the Everyone group do not affect the Anonymous Logon group.
