I have no idea what could cause that (aside from what you've already speculated), but maybe Unlocker would help:
http://download.cnet.com/Unlocker/3000-2248_4-10493998.html If that doesn't work, you could create a copy of the file with the same name (and append a .bak to the original file) and see if it would work with the copy instead. (Since presumably nobody is using the file you just created.)
