The permissions are inherited, so you will never be able to chmod anything below web root.
Quick answer would be fire Fasthosts off.
How many files / how big? Could you not store them as blobs in the database?

Im trying to set up a cms on a website im designing.
the guy whos website it is is using fasthosts.co.uk and this is what they say about folder permissions on their servers.
quote:
Access permissions on shared Windows servers
Summary
This article describes the access permissions on a Windows server.
Please note that it is not possible to alter these permissions for Windows servers on the shared system.
Permissions
Full FTP access to the root directory is allowed. This includes the ability to add/remove folders and files to/from all sub-directories.
Folders above the htdocs folder can only be accessed via FTP and server side scripts.
The website has read only access (with script execute) to the files in the web space (i.e. the files below htdocs).
Write permissions are not allowed on the website as this would be a security risk exposing the website, and the server, to attack by hackers.
The cgi-bin directory has execute permissions.
The access rights to any sub-directories that you create, will be inherited from the parent directory.
Is there anyway past this even if i were to use mambo? do i need to have ability to change folder permissions.
Thanx for any help, sorry for the essay
