it is highly unlikely that a hard disk is write protected. secondly it is possible for an administrator to block users to access or write on hard disk areas. if you are the admin, you have to most likely format the system as it seems to be a virus with special privileges.
always backup all critical data as there is an imminent risk of system crash as the virus is likely to destroy the system slowly by corrupting data & also stealing information by restricting access.

CD-Rs (Compact Disc Recordable) are initially writable but can be read-only once the data is finalized.

Thus, while CD-Rs can become read-only, not all DVDs are inherently read-only.
