If the module is refreshable, and marked as such (and REFRPROT is
enabled), internal fields can't be changed. The original specification
of "refreshable".
But, as Chris Craddock pointed out, the operating system has never
honored the "refreshable" attribute until now. IEWLFORK was undoubtedly
written many years ago. The developers could not have foreseen the page
protection issue. Of course, they never should have WRITTEN on the
module pages in the first place!
