Yes, I was using EFS. I did this a few months ago and am not sure exactly
what I did at the time. I don't have time to read all the information
tonight, but I thank you for providing it. I will read it during the next few
days. If you don't mind, I may have to ask you some more questions.

I am assuming here that you encrypted the files using the EFS service
that is part of XP, if that is the case and you did not create a
Recovery Agent and saved and exported the various keys and certificates
then I am afraid that your chances of unencrypting your data is
vanishingly small.

The following two links (I have used the TinyURL service found at
http://tinyurl.com/ to reduuce the size of the link addresses) may give
you more insight into EFS.
