Well, it works fine over here... Anyway here's the text: "Error 5 Access Denied" Error Message When a Program Tries to Alter Last Access and Creation Time (Q277628) The information in this article applies to: Microsoft Windows 98 Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition SYMPTOMS MS-DOS-based and 16-bit Windows-based programs have the ability to update the last access and creation time for files and folders by using DOS Interrupt 21 function 7143 sub-functions 5 and 7. Occasionally, while this procedure is being attempted, an "error 5 (access denied)" error message is reported back to the program. CAUSE This problem can occur if the operating system uses an incorrect test to determine whether the program is allowed to update the last access or creation time.

The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later: Date Time Version Size File name Operating system --------------------------------------------------------------------- 10/20/2000 2:48pm 4.10.1999 77,993 Vfat.vxd Windows 98 10/19/2000 3:52pm 4.10.2223 77,993 Vfat.vxd Windows 98 Second Edition 10/19/2000 3:27pm 4.90.3001 81,541 Vfat.vxd Windows Millennium Edition (Me) WORKAROUND To work around this problem and update the last access time and creation time for files, use the file handle-based function instead; Interrupt 21 function 5705 for last access date and time, and function 5707 for creation date and time. Note that it is not possible to update folder dates and times by using these functions. STATUS Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
