Thanks for the reply!   After posting this I went back and read through the Espionage help, and downloaded iVisible.   Using that, I saw that there was a hidden, empty ".FCP Projects" folder there, which was possibly preventing the new one from locking?   I deleted that one, and now the new one locks fine!  

So I don't know if the original folder got corrupted or not, but it seems to be working fine now.  

Are there any known issues with using Espionage and fast user switching?   I use separate accounts for work and for personal use, and this folder was created under my work account, which does not have admin privileges.  Is it possible that switching from one account to another without locking the folder caused this?

thanks again.

Hi all.

I recently installed and purchased Espionage (2.8.13), and I am running into a problem w/ one of my folders.   After unlocking it, it won't lock again.   What's weirder is that the first time this happened, the folder itself disappeared from the Finder.   It still showed up within the Espionage app window, and I was able to see the folder contents through the "reveal in finder" option there.   Upon doing so my folder, named "FCP Projects" showed up as ".FCP Projects".   Sensing something was wrong, I copied all the contents out of that folder into a new one in the same place, which I also named "FCP Projects"  However, now when I try to lock this new folder, it won't lock.  No error message, no nothing.  I'm not encrypting it, I just wanted to password protect that folder.  

Any thoughts as to why this would happen?  My other locked folders (both encrypted and non encrypted) are working fine.  

I'm running OSX 10.6.8, for what it's worth.
thanks!
