The link above shows you a screenshot of Advanced Attributes on Windows XP
with Windows 2000 theme.

I was wondering why the option to encrypt the files is never possible for me
- ever. It is always "greyed" out. Why is this and is this in other Windows
XP systems?

Is there a way of "ungreying" it?

File encryption is available in Windows XP Professional as long
as the drive is formatted NTFS. It is not a feature available in
Windows XP Home Edition.
