Appearance of folders

[Will S.]

I was recently in the WINDOWS folder and noticed that two of the sub folders
had a different style folder icon than the rest. The Downloaded Programs
folder and the Ocache folder are both standing on there ends open instead of
laying down closed.

Was wondering if there is any reason why these two folders appear this way.

Those folders get there icon from this file:
CWindows\System32\occache.dll

instead of the usual explorer.exe

The icon path is found here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{88C6C381-2E85-11D0-94DE-444553540000}\DefaultIcon]
