Password Protected Folder - I do not remember the password and ...

In: microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser


Windows XP pro and IE 6.0
Some time has passed, but I recall putting password protection on two
folders that are located in my Desktop. When I tried to open the folders, I
only found one file that could be what I wanted. It is tn.4.cache with only
2670. KBs so it may or may not be the file. I originally backed up the
folder holding this file, but now the backup is corrupted so I was trying to
open the original folder. When I open the folder, there are two small files
and the tn.4.cache. Trying to open that one, I get stopped by an error
message saying it cannot be opened as it is not a valid win32 application
once. Other times I can't open the file because the programs I tried to use
do not work with the file.

I am wondering if I am just barking up the wrong tree and this is not even
my original file that I password protected.

Is there any way to determine what the file is and might contain. Am I
getting the error message due to the password protection or for some other
reason.

George
