It means that the file you're trying to modify has it's permissions (CHMOD) set so that it can't be modified or overwritten. It needs to be given the CHMOD permissions of 777 (i.e. read and write).
This can be done with most FTP programs (
http://www.smartftp.com) by right clicking on the file/folder and choosing "Properties" / "CHMOD" / "Attributes" (depending on the program), and then setting the value to 777.
It can also be corrected using php with the command:
<?PHP
chmod("/somedir/somefile", 0777);
?>
And I think it can also be done in cPanle somehow, but I'm not sure exactly how.
