I've seen a similar problem with other applications. Often, the root of the problem is that the user's files (the Calibre library in this case) are in a directory below the Program Files directory. Windows Vista and above by default disallow programs to write in Program Files. I suspect that is what was happening in this case, which explains why moving the library somewhere else solved it. It also explain why the problem didn't arise in XP.
