Is there a way to tell XP to stop automatically replacing
a customized windows/system32/riched32.dll file?

Each time I copy my version of the file into place, XP
over-writes it with the original. Win2k had a popup
message verifying that this was what I intended to do -
and would then allow it. Is there a setting or a means to
change the auto replcement of this one file in XP?

I appreciate your help in advance.
