I don't agree. You closed this even before my reply to your mail, and I replied
immediately. You supposed that I had NTFS, which I do not.

It is a bug that `..' is treated differently from other Dired entries, and only
when it represents the top-level directory (e.g. c:\).

It is only when `..' stands for the top-level directory that `Everyone Everyone'
appears. In all other cases, all Dired entries, including `..' entries, list the
owner as my user name and the group as `None'.
