appropriate permissions to access the item. This started
after i downloaded windows updates..fri september 12th.
what can i do ?

Did you get an e-mail virus warning that appeared to be from Microsoft with
an attachment? Regardless, you might want to make sure your antivirus
software has the latest definitions and run a virus scan as this sounds as
though it might be the Swen Virus:
Swen virus:

NOTE: While Microsoft does send out virus warnings or other notices of
updates, it never sends out files, fixes or attachments.
