32873 2002-01-26 03:17:00 I went to clean out my history, cookies and tempory internet files and when I clicked on the folder the sub folders came up...but none of the contents were visible. Yet down below it listed say 54 objects and how many kbs...but nothing was showing on the screen. I checked all folders and their contents and everything on c drive was invisible. However I was able to delete the invisible contents from cookies etc...and they did all show up in the recycling bin visible.. I can't work this out. I clicked on view and options and made sure hide hidden files was not checked and it wasn't. Please help me.

Here are a couple of links that might go some way to explaining why some files seem to be 'invisible':
