Out of nowhere, i can no longer access the files in my encrypted folder on
my standalone vista ultimate laptop. nothin has changed as far as password
or folder owner. when i try to open any of the files, i get a windows
security popup that says "you are encrypting a file or trying to access an
encrypted file using a smart card. enter your smart card pin" "insert a
smart card". ive never even used one on this system. any thoughts on this?

thanks
