how to save email onto write protected thumb dr
« on: November 27, 2006, 06:18:56 PM »
trying to save an email message from either print view or regular view onto the thumb drive but kept getting a message that the drive is write protected & a file cannot be saved on a write protected disk.  i don't follow as i've been filing stuff on the thumb drive earlier in the day.  i checked the properties of the thumb drive & even changes to share permission & it still won't work.  there is plenty of free space on the tjhumb drive.  any way to save the message?  i tried saving it as html, web, text, etc w/out luck
