Taken ownership of encrypted folder/files, but now can't un-encrypt. (WINXP)



Hey all,

My previous installation of windows XP was corrupted. I re-installed
onto a NEW hard drive and have full access to the files on the
original. I had one encrypted folder and files on the original and
have taken ownership of them. I can access them now, but am unable to
move them to the new hard drive. When I go into properties (for folder
or files) the ecryption check box is checked but grayed out. I've set
permissions to full, but to no avail. Am I missing something? Thanks,

Al
