If you aren't saving files locally and not on a network server then that's
odd.
What antivirus program do you use?
When it becomes read only do you see (Read Only) in the title bar or are you
notified that it is read only when you attempt to save?

UPDATE:
Version Microsoft Word 2007 Professional
Windows XP
What is meant by working on a network? I'm working on my laptop as
Administrator. I go to classes and we have wireless internet connection
there
that the laptop automatically connects to but I don't think this would be
the
cause of the Read-Only problem because sometimes I can save the document
in
the first few minutes or so, then somehow it changes automatically to
read-only.

I'm having problems with all of my documents switching to Read-Only thus
making it impossible to Save. I have to Save As and then delete the
original
document and rename the new document to its previous name making it an
inconvenience.
Sometimes, in the beginning when I open the document I'm able to save
normally, then it switches to Read-Only which is a pain.
Please Help Me!
Thanks
