Default [Pending] Read only checkbox stays on read only

Hi all,

I've got a problem im running xp pro, but i suppose the security restrictions are a little too strong.
All folders on my pc have got the read only checkbox checked and it is shaded grey, although i can change this by clicking on it, and the box turns white. after applying and clicking ok, and returning to the properties window from a random folder the checkbox is as before, shaded grey and checked.

MS solution on the internet is not the one im looking for, also doing the command prompt thing doesnt help, safe mode doesnt work either.

I think it has something to do with some 'higher level' security settings, but i dont know where or how to change it.

Hope someone can help me out with this, because a script i am trying to use cannot write in the folders right now.

How about this one?

How to set, view, change, or remove special permissions for files and folders in Windows XP
