The find is also finding the data folder. You may try something like:

Code:
 
find /path/to/data -type d ! -name data -ctime 0 -exec /bin/rm -Rf "{}" \;

WZD-CONFIG(1)						    wzdftpd Client Applications 					     WZD-CONFIG(1)

NAME
wzd-config - retrieve information about the installed version of wzdftpd SYNOPSIS
wzd-config { --prefix | --exec-prefix | --data-dir | --libs | --cflags | --version }... DESCRIPTION
The wzd-config utility prints configuration parameters of the currently installed version of wzdftpd. It is intended, for example, to be used by software packages that want to interface to wzdftpd to facilitate finding the required header files and libraries. OPTIONS
To use wzd-config, supply one or more of the following options: --prefix Print the installation prefix, as specified in configure script. --exec-prefix Print the installation prefix for executables, usually the same as prefix. This is where you will find server ($eprefix/sbin) or tools ($eprefix/bin). --data-dir Print installation dir for data, modules and backends. --libs Print the location of object code libraries (use to develop new extensions). --cflags Print the location of include headers (use to develop new extensions). --version Print the version of wzdftpd and exit. If more than one option (except for --version) is given, the information is printed in that order, one item per line. NOTES
In releases prior to wzdftpd 0.4, before the wzd-config came to be, a method for finding the equivalent configuration information did not exist. HISTORY
The wzd-config utility first appeared in wzdftpd 0.4. Application 2003-11-02 WZD-CONFIG(1)
