You try your familiar password over and over and are told it is incorrect?

Try changing your Caps Lock setting.

Sometimes when we set the password, the Caps Lock is set wrong but we type the 
password twice exactly the same without noticing.

You'd be surprised how often that happens.

Are you saying you solved Bob's problem with his 'encrypted' file?

Hi :)
+1
Tpyos do happen and that Caps-Lock is a great example of one that rarely gets 
noticed if what you type is replaced by stars or not visible at all.  It's one 
of the great classics along with waggling the wires or rebooting a Windows 
machine.  I think something else Dennis did fixed this particular problem this 
time tho.  

Regards from
Tom :)
