Today we had an issue with XP and its intentional desire to set folders in 
specialPath(26) to read only.   If you ever find that your update tech or prefs 
logic fail when it shouldn't, you may have fallen victim to permissions being 
set to read only.  Keep in mind that MS does this on purpose in XP under 
certain circumstances.  The link below explains the issue further.  It also has 
a workaround to clear this up.  A restart of the OS is required for it to take 
effect.  

I hope this helps you solve this issue for your clients before it becomes a 
bigger problem.  We are considering adding code to our products that set this 
registry key up automatically to prevent this from happening again.
