Chat windows not remembering settings

[lollygagger]

I've read through all the posts and have tried applying the read only flag to my .ini file without success.

Steps:
1. Logged into game with .ini set to read/write
2. Changed chat and window settings
3. Noted that the .ini file shows current date modified to match time of changes
4. Zoned into a trade instance
5. Set .ini to read only
6. Exited game w/o camping
7. Logged back in

Changes did not keep and I'm back to where I started.

Suggestions?
