removing readonly attributes in xp

hi all,

i am facing a strange problem with my winxp sp2 system. whenever i create a folder the attributes of that folder are "Read only" by default.

naturally i dont have problem with this. but i had a project which requires that installation directory must be writable. but whenever it crates a directory the winxp is setting it attributes to read only. and because of that the installation stopped.

can anyone help me regarding this. i dont want to set the folder attributes to be readonly by default.

please help me.
