Is C:\Users\4emobius your user account's home folder? Does the file for which you're getting an "Access is denied" exception exist and is it writable by your account? I know that virus scanners can cause these kinds of problems, i.e., while scanning a file, the file is locked but then of course later when you go and look at the file, it's not locked and is writable so you're left wondering why the Java process is getting access denied exceptions.
