File/Folder Properties

I tried to change a folder (and all subfolders) by removing the Read Only
flag. Vista says that it is working. Then I check the folder and it is
still Read Only. Why?

I even tried this by launching IE7 as Administrator. It made no difference.
The folder remains Read Only.

Thanks
