Default Lost Folder Question

I created a folder in C\Programs Files\Agent\To Be Saved and had
copied numerous messages to it. Now when I open the C\Programs
Files\Agent directory the folder is not shown there; however if I do a
Search for the folder it is shown with all its contents?

Does anyone know what could cause this to happen and is there a way to
return the folder and/or make it visable once again in the directory?

Right click the folder, select "Properties" and on the "General" tab, untick
"Hidden". (Ignore the fact that "Read-only" is ticked, all XP folders have
that atribute).
