if you notice then there are three variations of the check-box.
* blank (not read-only)
* checked
* box-filled (the check-box is filled with a green square)

Enable/disable readonly but when you see the properties again you'll see the 'box-filled' version. Its not a problem, you folder was marked "write-also) ( :D ) the first time itself.

*wonders why MS did this*
