Before SP2, I could write to CD simply by doing Copy and
then Paste, Write to CD. Or that's the way I recall it.

Now the same procedure wants me to write the files someplace
and then to the CD burner. What's a sequence for getting to
"File and Folder Tasks"? Probably real simple, but I can't
find it.

Okay, the Onboard "Help" led me to File and Folder Tasks.
Now when I try to write to CD, I get a "Parent lock"
objection. First time I ever saw one. I'll try to use
"Help" to show me how to disable all Parent Locks.
I'll probably be back.....

And so I am. I searched on Parent Lock and got 15 articles,
but no instructions on how to get rid of it entirely.....????

"Parent Lock", is evidently a "feature" built into Mozilla, not Windows.

What specific message are you trying to leave? Are you trying (although
erroneously) to impress someone with this message?
