Can anyone help with a most perplexing problem that
suddenly started:

files that was moved from a folder to another now cannot
be opened, moved, copied, ... "Access Denied". The files
can still be seen with the right file sizes, but it almost
seems like XP does not recognized them.

No Norton installed.

TIA
