read only file
When I try to install the new version of Defaggler via Hippo.com the update
fails. The error indicates that it can not write to the c:/programs/defraggler file. The file indicates read only so I uncheck the box to allow the new file to be written but it fails again and when I go the file I see the read only bax is checked again. What it preventing me from allowing this file a read/write status? -- jj

The folder being 'read only' is not what you think it is. ;-) -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
