Well, we all know how good DOS/Windows's file security is ;)

Apparently. But only if you have those permissions for an existing file in
that directory. It'd be quite an odd setup to have a directory marked as
read-only to you, but have (some of) its contents read/writeable. Besides,
the directory is marked read-only so why would you want it listed when you
otherwise want read/write capabilities? If worse comes to worse, you can do
the same as a hidden directory.. type in the name manually and hit enter.
