Open 'disk utility', click your HD, and then 'repair disk permissions'. Good luck!

Have you tried Force Quitting the Finder? Hold down the Apple and Alt Key and press Esc (top right). Select Finder and then press Relaunch.

Often logging out and logging back in will also work or simply restarting the Mac.

Edit: OK, you fixed it. :)
