OK, here I am again.  You helped me make my system folder visible and 
I'll be eternally grateful. Well, at least until Tuesday.  Now I've 
got another problem.  The school techie who made the system folder 
invisible also put all the applications and most of the rest of the 
hard disk space on a write protected partition.  So even if some 
smart kid smuggled in a copy of ResEdit, he couldn't do anything to 
the applications partition.
Before I stepped up in front of you with my hand out again, I tried 
every hard disk utility I could find and they all said that I would 
probably lose everything on the disk in a reformat.  I'd rather not 
take that chance.  Is there a sure fire way to remove the write 
protection from the partition without reformatting?
Thanks
