Good Evening Bob,
Yes there is. David Crowell offers a freeware solution to your problem that works like a charm. It's called CROA (an acronym for Clear Read-Only Attributes) and is "...a handy utility that will clear the read-only bit of all subfolders and files in a specific folder. This is extremely useful after copying the contents of a CD to your hard drive."

This neat, easy-to-use utility will do the trick for you with minimum hassle.
While your at it you might wish to send CROA's developer a brief thank you note because, without people like him, the lives of Windows users everywhere wouldn't be anywhere near as pleasant or productive. It's always nice to get some positive feedback on a job well done! I am,
Very truly yours,
Jeffrey Ottie
