Sharepoint 2007 / 2003 document count in Doc Lib

A Sharepoint 2003 document library has 3 files and 2 folders.

A SharePoint 2007 document library has 3 files and 2 folders.

Compare document count in "View All Site Content" and "Documents and Lists":
Sharepoint 2003 indicates 5 documents
Sharepoint 2007 indicates 7 documents

Conclusion: Sharepoint 2007 also counts document in the folders AND subfolders! So after an upgrade to Moss 2007 don't panic if you have more files in SharePoint 2007 than SharePoint 2003.
