    Sounds like some sort of system error.

    Perhaps an OS update to your time/space continoum settings would sort it.

    Why not? That is what you should be asking yourself, my friend.

    Is you're network operator named 'Simon' by any chance, and have there been a number of unexplained electrocutions lately?

    That might be your answer.

    My suggestion. Don't touch anything that looks like it's metal for a while... or wear rubber soled boots.

    As above or also someone is downloading items in the past that might be virus infected so they are possibly taking temp extra protection till the source is routed out!

    Personal Computer or Work computer? If its a work computer its possibly your company has reverted to a secure environment which would heavily restrict what users can do. i.e. not removable storage devices allowed. Only allowed to write to certain locations on the machine...

    Thats the kind of insightful advice the OP could have used in '99
