First run Check Disk on the disk volumes in case there is some sort of
corruption. Then verify that you are logged on as a local administrator by
using the net localgroup administrators command which should also contain
the domain admins group for the domain if a domain computer. The owner
should always be able to change permissions to allow himself access. If
still not luck try changing ownership to administrators. If still no luck
you can resort to command line tools such as fileacl to change permissions
and/or ownership. I would also do a full virus scan on the computer using
latest virus definitions since you are experiencing strange behavior. ---
