Windows XP blue writing problem

[Oli_F]

Hi All,

I run Windows XP Home edition on a Dell P4 1.5 with 256 RAM and 40 GB drive. I have never had any problems with my computer, but have noticed that recently, when browsing through the files on my computer, some of the titles of them appear in BLUE writing instead of the normal black. I run the latest version of F-Secure, and use the windows XP firewall with my dial up connection, although I am about to go over to broadband. Does anybody know why my computer is doing this?

Many Thanks,

Oli_F

By default, the names of encrypted NTFS files and folders are displayed in green; those of compressed files and folders appear in blue. If you like black better, clear Show Encrypted Or Compressed NTFS Files In Color.
