Yep, somehow the folder had become encrypted. And when I copied the file
elsewhere it stayed encrypted.
It might be nice if explorer could show encrypted stuff in an alternate
colour like it can compressed - red for encrypted, blue for compressed or
maybe just use the same colour for both.
Then we could use filename colour coding to get around the icon overlay
restrictions - how many shades can I distinguish etc.
Realistically I suppose the only possible use for colouring the filename
would be to show 'in subversion' which would free one overlay. Probably
impracticable, impossible or a waste of time.

Thanks for the help,
Bill
