Are you sure that you locked it ? I am asking this because Nokia phones are known to password protect memory cards by its own. This has happened to me too. Unfortunately there is no way to unlock it. (I haven't found any way to unlock my card)

I know. The same thing happened to me. When I found my card locked, I couldn't figure out when I did that. I tried all the passwords I use elsewhere but didn't work.

When I Googled this, I was sure it is a phone problem. Try Googling. You'll se that you're not alone suffering from this problem.
