I can't find files in search that are in Eudora. I can't see them in
Windows Explorer either. I assume they must be hidden. How do I unhide
them please? I have a\dministrator priviledges.

Go to Start, Control Panel, Folder Options, View,
Advanced Settings and verify that the box before "Show hidden files and
folders" is checked and "Hide protected operating system files " is
unchecked. You may need to scroll down to see the second item. You should
also make certain that the box before "Hide extensions for known file types"
is not checked. Next in Windows Explorer make sure View, Details is selected
and then select View, Choose Details and check before Name, Type, Total
Size, and Free Space.

Hope this helps.
