Somewhere in there is his problem.  I checked under 98SE and those 
files should read Archive.  I just checked in the XP system and the 
two boxes, Read-only and Hidden, are both unchecked.  

Something is making those files read-only...  

And, I just checked.  The directory is marked as Read-only, 
but the files under that are not.  And, I also just checked.  
I ran BW in the XP system and the flags/marks were saved.  

It's not directly a problem of BW.  It has to do with the 
creation of the archive and/or original download.  

I'm using PKZIP  When I changed a packet to Read-only, on 
exiting it gave me a warning me a warning message that the 
packet can't be created.  

My guess is that he is using a different packer and/or has wrong 
setting for it.
