I use dos's attrib command. I put it in c:\windows\command so it's always
available. Say I copy a cd and all it's folders to a directory called abc.
The I move to abc and type attrib -r -s *.*. The -r removes the read-only
flag and the -s tells it to do all the subdirectories and their contents
too.

I hope that's a help.
