I used to suffer from an annoying problem where every so often a doc that I'd
been editing would become read-only. I'd have to save it with a new name,
delete the old copy, and rename the newly saved one. It would hum along OK
for a while (sometimes a few days and sometimes just a few saves) and then
become read-only again.

I never found a definitive answer, but most of the threads I found in
various forums suggested turning off background saves. Since turning off
background saving a few months ago, I don't think this has happened more than
once or twice.

Today it's back with a vengance. It's happened on various docs and just
about every time I save my edits. The only change to my system is last
night's auto-update with security fixes (KB969604).

Has anyone else seen this? Think it's a bug in the security patch?

The other Office patches that were installed are 969679, 969613, and 969559.
(There were many more, but they were specific to other Office products.)
