I believe it is a warning message just to inform you that if you decrypt a
file over the network that the data will not be encrypted on the wire. The
access denied probably means that you do not have an EFS certificate/private
key on the computer where the encrypted file exists. Also to encrypt files
on a network server, the computer must be trusted for delegation in it's
computer account properties in Active Directory Users and Computers. The
link below explains more. --- Steve
