Angry All MS Word Docs now "Read-Only"?

Hey guys, I was working on a dissertation that I am writing when, suddenly and without warning, every document and every chapter for my dissertation was labeled as "read-only"! I have MS Word 2011 for Mac, so I went up to: Files > Properties > General tab and under attributes the "read-only" box is checked, but it's greyed out so that I cannot uncheck it. PLEASE HELP! I have a deadline!

Also, it seems as if I am unable to drag and drop any files onto the thumbdrive onto which they have been saved.
