[AccessD] Folder 'Caching'

I just googled "secured foler" and found something called Entrust/Ice. This
is the first time I've encountered the term so it may be that other
companies use it. It appears at first glance to be a product that manages
and encrypts all the files in the directories you select.

Why this process might cause the symptoms you describe, I have no idea, but
check on your Programs menu (from a computer that can see this folder) and
see if there is something called Entrust/Ice.
