how do i remove the write protection in order to copy files from my netbook to a usb

First, if you're copying to an SD or other flash memory card (from a digital camera, for example) then make sure its write-protect switch is set to allow writes:

If that doesn't solve the problem, then check to make sure that writing to USB devices isn't disabled in the Registry.
