Solved Blue folders in Documents folder

[Kevinr]

My dad had his files transfered from a computer with a Windows XP OS, and now there are blue folders in the "My Documents" shortcut. (they don't actually look like folders, more like a symbol for a stack of paper). Anyway, what are they? I can't seem to do anything with them. I can view them, go to the location (which is anyfolder on the hard drive), and delete them, which deletes them from the HD as well. Please see attachment. Please help figure this out.
Thanks,
Kevin R.

Here is a screenshot. It's in the shortcut 'My Documents", sorry. It should be attached.

What you are seeing is a filtered view with in the Documents Library, at the top right of the window, there should be "Arrange by" next to some blue text and an error, click it and select Folder.

Thanks. I looked and didn't see anything. He's using the computer right now, so I will look deeper later.
Thanks again,
