As far as I know, all the files copied to a CD will be marked as read-only.
When copy it back to your HD, it'll still keep the readonly attribute.
Untick the readonly attribute from file/property popup should fix the
problem.
As for why you can't uncheck the readonly attrubute, my guess are:
1. The login user don't have the previlege to change it
2. The media the file is saved on is readonly, eg. on a CD.
