Host problem or script chmod problem?

I've got a script problem which is confusing me. (not difficult) I'd be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.

I'm trying to install a LL script but I cannot chmod a links.db file correctly. I get the message:
'Request denied.
Verify that the file or folder exists and that you have the necessary permissions on the server to perform the requested operation'

I've contacted my host and requested them to change the chmod. They did this but the file reverted to the original, wrong, chmod. This happened twice. Now my hosting company say there is something in the script (Gossamer) making it remove and recreate the file. Its a common free script and to my knowledge no-one else has had this problem. Is it likely that the script is doing this?
Thanks in advance.
