Its gotta be something weird. Its only a text file and nothing magical. Try moving it to your desktop or something. Then if you can edit move it back.

Did I hear "Vista"?

That might be it. Vista is a little more paranoid on security, and if you didn't explicity do the "Run as Administrator" thing when you brought up your text editor, it will not write to the Program Files folder.

Yeah I experienced that in Vista too. When it does that I just move it out of the folder and make the changes, then move it back.
