Everytime I edit (Metadata id3 tags) of mp3 files in Songbird, the icon of mp3 files changes, an LOCK sign gets added on top of cover art of the fileicon when viewed in Windows Explorer. What does the lock sign means? How do I remove it?

Here are other details of my system: OS: Windows 7 Home Premium Songbird: 1.9.3 (Build 1959)

The lock usually appears on files that have come from another computer. It is to alert you that they may possibly be infected and so to use them with caution.

But I have no idea why they appear on your current files after editing. In any case, the lock will disappear on its own soon. If the first page of the file's Properties say that it is blocked, unblock it and Apply.
