Default Intermittent Read Only at Save

Hi guys

Using Office 2003 Pro on Windows 7 Pro, as add content to a Word document,
by force of habit I hit Ctrl+S to save the document. However, since moving to
Windows 7 Pro intermittently the document will become read only and I will
have to rename the document to save. I can make a number changes, hit Ctrl+S
a few times until the document is read only again and I cant over right it.

This document is a vastly modified template, could that have anything to do
with it?

Cant seem to figure out why and whats causing it, any ideas anyone?

Many thanks

If this is a document received via e-mail, it may be blocked. Close the file
and display the Properties dialog box (for example by right-clicking the icon
in Windows and choosing Properties from the context menu). Click the Unblock
button on the General tab.
