ASP Permission requirements

What permissions are required for ASP to have the ability to create new folders/files...but prevent anonymous users from accessing the directory?

I have a server setup that hosts a game site that has several sites, each pertaining to a group or team of people who all play in the game. When a sight is created, the VBScript code in the ASP page creats the subfolder, copies over template files, and then creates new files that are needed to bring that site online.

Recently we have been hacked on about six occasions, two of these occasions they actually deleted/created unwanted content on the server. I would like to strip the NTFS Perms on these directories, but I need to still allow the coding in the ASP pages to be able to modify (Create/Delete/Edit) folders/pages in these directories. Most of these functions are done by site admins through utilities in the ASP coding (VBScript).

Any ideas or other suggestions???
