Clint:
It did not make any difference whether
the file was hidden or not. As far as I could see,
the Web folder as created by the browser had
some properties that prevented the files in it from
being identified by the windows FIND program.
After I renamed the folder to Seb, then back
to Web it no longer has that property, which
cuts off any further investigation of the anomaly,
For those of you that still have the original Web
folder, be aware that you might not find files in that
folder using the windows FIND program.
