Xp files marked read only with square box

[Legales1]

Hello,
green square in "read only" box for all folders in xp sp3. Remove it and it comes back?

green square means mixed settings, basically it's telling you that some folders are read only and some are not. Windows won't let you change some system folders to be writable, so no point fussing over it.

Thanks for your reply. I finally figured this out when I looked at all the other XP workstations in the office (duh)! Never noticed it before.
