Setting up GPO to assign file system permissions

I am trying to set up a policy that will assign file
permissions on a specific file (explorer.exe), in order
to restrict access to it across all of our Citrix
Metaframe servers.

To do this, I opened the default domain policy in the
Group Policy editor. I went to 'computer
configuration', 'security settings', and 'File System'. I
added the file 'c:\winnt\explorer.exe', configure deny
execute permissions for the user group I wanted to
restrict, deselected the option for the file to allow
inheritable permissions to propagate.

However, whenever I log in to the servers, no matter
which user I log in with (domain admin, regular user),
the permissions remain unchanged (everyone,fullcontrol).

Anyone out there have experience pushing NFTS permssions
via GPO's before, that can give me some direction?
