MySQL v4.0.1

I've run into an problem were I can't drop a table. I've used different tools (command line interface, a GUI table manager) to try this. I get an "Errcode 13" back which is "Permission denied". The manual talks about this error when starting MySQL as you didn't have rights to read/create files. The main MySQL is setup up on a remote server, but I have set up MySQL on my local computer (W2K SP2) which gives the same error. What is strange is that I was able to drop one table once. And I also know that the tables I'm trying to drop are not being used.
