changing permissions on a 444 file (ie chmod 444)
if I have a file set to permisions 444 (r-- r-- r--) should anyone other than the owner and root be able to change these permissions or delete the file.
Apologies if this is a no-brainer but I cant test it myself and someone in our organisation is playin around with files they shouldnt be

xml::quote
Quote(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Quote(3pm)
NAME
XML::Quote - XML quote/dequote functions
SYNOPSIS
use strict;
use XML::Quote qw(:all);
my $str=q{666 > 444 & "apple" < 'earth'};
print xml_quote($str),"
";
# 666 > 444 & "apple" < 'earth'
my $str2=q{666 > 444 & "apple" < 'earth'};
print xml_dequote($str2),"
";
# 666 > 444 & "apple" < 'earth'
my $str3=q{666 > 444 & "apple" < 'earth'};
print xml_quote_min($str3),"
";
# 666 > 444 & "apple" < 'earth'
DESCRIPTION
This module provides functions to quote/dequote strings in "xml"-way.
All functions are written in XS and are very fast; they correctly process utf8, tied, overloaded variables and all the rest of perl
"magic".
FUNCTIONS
$quoted = xml_quote($str);
This function replaces all occurences of symbols '&', '"', ''', '>', '<' to '&', '"', ''', '>', '<' respectively.
Returns quoted string or undef if $str is undef.
$dequoted = xml_dequote($str);
This function replaces all occurences of '&', '"', ''', '>', '<' to '&', '"', ''', '>', '<' respectively. All
other entities (for example ) will not be touched.
Returns dequoted string or undef if $str is undef.
$quoted = xml_quote_min($str);
This function replaces all occurences of symbols '&', '"', '<' to '&', '"', '<' respectively. Symbols ''' and '>' are not
replaced.
Returns quoted string or undef if $str is undef.
EXPORT
xml_quote(), xml_dequote() are exported as default.

You can use t/benchmark.pl to test the perfomance. Here is the result on my P4 box.
