Unable to retrieve folder information from the server

I am running Visual Studio 2003 and while opening ANY of my ASP.NET 1.1
projects I get the following error appearing in an alert box:

"Unable to retrieve folder information from the server"

None of the files for the project open in the solution explorer.

Has anyone ever experienced this, or know of a solution?

Thanks,
Peter

thanks, but deleting VSWebCache exacerbated the problem when I tried it
before (I found that link earlier)

The original problem was that I got the error on ONE project.

Then I deleted VSWebCache (which incidentally has been recreated fine by
VS since)

Then I couldn't open any projects?!?

I finally found the solution.
