What does this special folder icon in CDT/Eclipse project explorer mean? The bluish thingy looks like a key or screw or some kind of tool. I guess it has something to do with CVS. I couldn't find the info in the Preferences > Appearance > Label Decorations settings.

Are you using Subversion and the Sublipse plugin for Eclipse? Those black boxes with white asterisks indicate that something in that directory has changed compared to the latest version that is checked in. If its on a file, then that file has changed.
Press the "Ctrl," "Shift" and "R" keys on your keyboard simultaneously. A pop-up window will open and you can type in the name of the file you wish to find. Eclipse uses intelligent matching. Once it matches the file, just press "Enter." This is the fastest way to find files of any type, including Java and PHP files.
The wrench icon over a folder or file means that it is overriding some of the build settings inherited from its parent. If it's there by accident, you most likely right-clicked that folder instead of the entire project and changed some of its properties.
To fix it, right click the folder with the wrench icon, go to its properties, and click "restore defaults" on each of the categories that differ from the main project.
