[mso] read only problems

From time to time, someone will open a file and work on it and then try to
save it only to get that the file is read only and can't be altered.

I understand about (I think) the read only attributes, but this happens to
files that were not set up as read only.

Often happens after a file has been moved from one computer to another...

I have in the past solved this problem by renaming it and saving on a floppy
or some other solution, but I don't know why this happens....and I can't
fully describe the different situations, because it's never happened to me
personally, only my co-workers!

Any thoughts?

Thanks
