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. 


    RESOLUTION

    A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem
    described in this article and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. 

    To resolve this problem, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the fix. For a complete
    list of Microsoft Product Support Services phone numbers and information on support costs, please
    go to the following address on the World Wide Web: 

          http://support.microsoft.com/directory/overview.asp 

    NOTE : In special cases, charges that are normally incurred for support calls may be canceled, if a
    Microsoft Support Professional determines that a specific update will resolve your problem. Normal
    support costs will apply to additional support questions and issues that do not qualify for the specific
    update in question. 

    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.
