Files being made writable with VS.Net 2003

Dear All,

We are having a strange problem, we are using the techniques described in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnbda/html/tdlg_rm.asp
 with one large solution, and three developers working on it. However on my
machine twice now the majority of files in the C# projects have been made
writable. I do a get latest version from the SOS client, you can see that
it replaces the few files that have changed since I last did this. Then
open up the solution from VS.Net, and work on a file, and it doesn't ask me
to check it out, just lets me continue and overwrite the file, whilst the
server thinks it's still checked in. The use read only flag is ticked in
SOS. A lot of the files that are being made writable are ones that I have
never worked on, just got them out of SOS to be able to build the solution.

Has anyone else had something similar happen to them, or any ideas on how
to prevent it happening again?

Thanks
