You can keep going in this loop but you aren't actually changing
anything, so you're going to keep getting the same errors.

Given the paths you quote, I assume you're on Windows. Have you tried
disabling your virus scanner temporarily to see if things clear up?
Some antivirus products don't play nicely at all with Subversion.
