Go into Group Policy (poledit.msc). Go to Windows Settings, Security Settings. Ensure that "Administrators" is listed in the "take ownership of files and other objects". If it isn't, add it, and reboot.
Then, once you're back up, right-click the folder, select properties, Ownership, and then 'take ownership'. You may get a statement of the form "Your current permissions do not allow you to view the current access control list, but you may take ownership of the object." If this is the case, then click OK, then 'take ownership', then select Advanced Permissions, set it to Everyone (Full Control), and "replace all permissions on objects contained with inheritable permissions from this object".
A less-annoying way, I believe you found, is to mount it with ntfs-3g on a Mac or Linux box. :)
