"Shared Documents" folder being displayed "Documents"

[Farnk]

The "Shared Documents" folder is being displayed as
just "Documents", and the folder *is* accessible.

Reading through these posts, I have checked the folder's
attributes and all seems OK. I have checked the registry
(...\Explorer\User Shell Folders) and Common Documents is
set to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents, as
expected.

I have on a WinXP Pro system:
My Computer
- Documents (expect Shared Documents. Not
accessible unless Admin authority)
- Shared Music (as expected and shared)
- Shared Pictured (as expected and shared)
- Shared Video (as expected and shared)

Any ideas as to why "Shared Documents" is showing as plain
old "Documents"??

Thanks in advance,
Farnk
