Enter your smart card PIN?!?!?


Hi, well, I did encrypt some folders and after some time decrypted them.
Now I have a problem with using Search - when it tries to access the
_*ex*-encrypted_ files, it hangs off and a pop-up window says:
"Encrypting File System" Wrote:
You are encrypting a file or trying to access an encrypted file using a
smart card. Enter your smart card PIN.

Well, that was out of the blue! I've never even HEARD about smart cards
for encryption!

Any known solution for this?
