Andrew,

My MS4W installation is set to read-only as well, however, I am able to 
write throughtout the folder.

Have you made sure that 'Use Folder Names' is checked when unzipping 
(this should be on the 'Extract' dialog)?

hth,
Jason

Has anyone else experienced this?  I'm wondering if I need to set some sort of parameter in Winzip, or some sort of directory read/write parameter.

I'm getting a maplab directory where I direct the extract, but am not getting the new directory within /ms4w/apps or any new httpd_*.comf file at /ms4w/httpd.d/httpd_*.comf.  I'll add versions if necessary, but I've been using latest ms4w and maplab.   I'm having the same problems with Chameleon.
