How to unhide the folder security tab in Windows XP

I know Microsoft was in good intention when they hide a lot of administration detail on Windows XP, but it could be painful when I tried to use XP as a development work station. For instance, I was trying to configure ASP.NET so that it can access Oracle client, and I need to set Security (安全性) of a folder. However, since by default the
“使用簡易檔案共用” setting under Folder Setting was checked, thus I don’t see安全性 tab in folder properties. Of course I eventually sort this out and fixed the problem, but I have to admit that it was a pretty frustrating experience.
