  If you are using the ext2 (or, I presume,  ext3) there are certain file 
attributes that you can toggle with the chattr command.  One of those 
atttributes is the immutable flag, making the file unchangeable, even if the 
write permission bit is set.   chattr +i <filename> will do it for you.

  Unfortunately, the reiserfs doesn't do immutable files which is a reason why 
I'm thinking of going to the ext3fs.  I do not know if JFS or XFS honor the 
immutable flag or not.
