First, do you have the svn:needs-lock property set on these files? If
so this behaviour is expected. See the locking information in the
svn/tsvn manuals for details.

If you're sure svn:needs-lock isn't set then I suggest using Filemon
( http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Filemon.html ) to watch a
specific file, find out who is changing the file's permissions to
read-only, and work from there.
