I have a very strange problem with files disappearing or hiding themselves
in Explorer windows. It only happens with files that start with underscore
"_" so that if I were to rename "test.txt" to "_test.txt" for example, it
would disappear from the explorer screen. However in a DOS prompt window
the file would still be there.
I have Win XP and just upgraded to SP2 to see if that would help. No luck.
Tried scanning for viruses and hijackers using Spybot and Ad-aware, and all
clean. No unusual processes in the Task Manager or system Start Up. My
folder options are set to display hidden files. I'm at a loss. Just a few
days ago these files were working fine.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
