Access denied

[QWERTY]

When I go to open some folders (it appears to be random), I get the "Access
is denied" dialog box saying the folder is not accessible. I can't do
anything at all with these folders - right click, delete button or use the
quick access tasks on the left.

Any suggestions? I haven't loaded SP2 yet... scared.
