   One of the very strangest "fee-churs" of Windows Vista is that, if you   
   attempt to update a shared file in a protected directory... Windows will   
   pretend to let you do it!   
      
   What it does is to make a private copy of the file, in your own directory,   
   and let you modify THAT.  But it doesn't tell you that it has done so.   
      
   The only guess that I can figure is that "some game" must have required   
   this, and someone (without thinking about its implications too much...)   
   thought it was "a splendid idea."   
      
   So...
