backups stuck as read-only

So the other day I had to do a fresh wipe of winXP, so I backed up-
among other things- the directories I'd checked out from my personal &
public SVN repositories.

Thought I'd get some work done today, but there's a bit of a problem-
the files seem to be stuck as read-only (they weren't set as read-only
when I was working on them, and there doesn't appear to be a lock on them).

On the new setup, I've got my main profile as a limited account- can't
take read-only off on there, so I log in under the admin-perms account,
right-click the folder and recursively take read-only off.

Except that doesn't work, since as soon as it's done I go check it, and
the files a read-only again.

Checking out a fresh copy of the same repository lets me make a commit
however.

Any thoughts on how to remedy the situation ?
