Windows Explorer Drive Icon Anomaly?

[MarkAtHome]

Hi -- when I open My Computer (Win7x64SP1), I have Explorer display my drives Tiled, and have been doing this for some time.

I have recently noticed that the icon for one of my drives has a little addition and would like to know whether anyone has seen it, and if so, what does it mean?

Note that I have already checked the ICO itself and it is fine and does not show that little addition, so I am presuming that it was added by the system.

I believe it means that at least one folder on the drive or the whole drive is shared so that other people can access from other computers on the network. You can right-click the drive, select "Properties", and then click the "Sharing" tab to find out what's being shared.

Thanks, sminlal. I did not think of it relating to a share, but after looking, all is as it should be -- there is no share on that drive.

Update: There was a share for one embedded folder... Wow! You learn something new everyday -- I guess that is why I have been doing this as long as I have.

Thanks again.
