I have put too many files on my backup CD and am having trouble accessing
files. I tried to remove some of the files, but I get an error message that
the files are "Read Only" protected and that I cannot delete them. Is there a
way to chaneg the protection so I can move or delete files from the CD?

Right click on the file, select properties and uncheck the read-only box.
