you can use ResEdit or Resourcerer or a number of other utilities.
In ResEdit, select File > Get File/Folder Info & find your file &
mark the 'Invisible' checkbox (lower right of the dialog), close,
save, quit
or as easier way (on older Macs) -
Install 'Snitch' (shareware) -
It expands your getInfo box to include the basic Finder props.
