Windows xp search result text colours

[CYPHERUS]

Hi again.....Simple one this...I hope, Client doing a windows file search wants to know why some if the results are listed in BLUE and the rest in black. and for once I could not find a suitable reply except 'I don,t know lets go find out.'

It could be the settings cos i ran several searches and they were all in black and there were loads of idffernt types of files.

the system may be displaying compressed files in colors.
if so, it is unrelated to 'search' and will show up when displaying directory contents.
