SharePoint 2007 - Access in Read Only to a folder

Hi,

I have a folder. A Group A can access on it only in Read. It's seems ok because the buttons "New" and "Upload" dont appear anymore. But another problem appears : when a user open a file, and edit it, it seems that he's able to edit it and save it without any problem !! How can i manage this problem I dont want to allow them to edit documents.

Thanks for help.

How can i do

    Are they able to save it back into the document library Usually not... but they are able to save a copy to their computer. Anybody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think sharepoint can keep the user from saving a copy. It can only prevent them from replacing the original in the document library.

    Yes they are able to save it into the document library ! and that's my problem...
