Interesting Poser..... {@shell32.dll,-12688}

I've always wanted to ask this question, so here goes..........
This has nothing to do w/integrity of Windows, etc....
I have a fldr, it's my stuff, I restore it to my D:\ partition or the
partition I'm using for my data shortly after I install Windows.

The fldr icon shows ***correctly*** in web page view, however not in browse
or Explorer view.
In Explorer view this fldr icon shows as a system icon ???

If I just hover my mouse over this icon, view as a web page is turned on, I
see under modified date this
@Shell32.dll,-12688 of course it's the only fldr. on entire system that
seems to
have the additional info.

Ummmm....... the text above turned blue like a hyperlink ?

Obviously, that's the big clue!! Is there an easy fix for this ?

If there is a desktop.ini file in that folder, delete it (or rename it, for a
temporary test). Be sure you have Explorer set to "Show all files".

No Glee,
No desktop.ini file in folder..... show all files turned on. Only Hewlett
Packard.dat and HP thumbs and
Windows thumbs.db

No other files in that folder? ;-) No folder.htt file, no desktop.ini, no
folder.ini?
Have you tried simply creating a new folder, moving the contents of this folder, and
then deleting the folder?
