Since this is an institutional machine, it occurs to me that it could be
an ACL issue, where all the permissions look okay, but since ACLs trump
permissions, it still messes with you. That's what happened to me with my
institutionally-issued Mac a bit ago, after my university's tech "support"
upgraded my machine. Fortunately, if I recall correctly you said you have
admin access, so you should be able to fix it yourself if that's the
problem.

Right, thanks. Finally sank in.
The dialog box looks to me like the Finder icon (I don't know what that
means yet, but it doesn't look like the gatekeeper thing which is in
newer versions of os x ). There is sophos on the system and it beyond
me to do anything I think. Anyway, you've given me something to discus
with our technical support (like turning sophos off for 2 minutes while
I check if that's the problem). I will email back when it's fixed.
Thanks
Paul
