Default FM08- please help (yes, i have read other peeoples problems)

I have been playing footy manager 08 for a couple of weeks, got charlton in europe after 6 years - indeed my degree is suffering!
however for some unknown reason to me, the game wont load up now, it comes up with an error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. you may not have appropriate permisssions to access the item."

- I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the game several times
- I am the only user on my laptop

HELP!!! thank you very much

Ok thats right, go to the general tab, down the bottom are any of the 2 boxes ticked, either Read Only or Hidden?

Is there a box/button next to these down the bottom which says 'Unblock'?

Do you use Internet Explorer by any chance?
