[TEC] Gramophone Files resetting to Read Only - any idea why?

I'm trying to run jimimadrid's great song randomizer app - it used to run great, but now for some reason it keeps throwing off failure errors that seem to be related to the song files being tagged as "read only" so the app can't rename them. Before, whenever this happened I was able to use Windows Explorer to change the attributes of the gramophone folder to uncheck "read only", and then the app would work fine again. However, now, no matter where I do that unchecking (I've tried it on the gramophone folder, and several parents up to and including the entire SH4 game install folder), it doesn't seem to "stick" and the app errors out and the "read only" box is checked again when I call up the properties.

Any idea why this would be happening and how to fix it? (running XP Pro, as admin)
