That indicates extended attributes are applied to the file. You can use xattr to modify/view those attributes.

See: ls -la symbolics... what does that last symbol mean?

It means the file has extended attributes. You can use the -@ switch to ls to view them, and xattr to modify/view them.

example:

ls -@ HtmlAgilityPack.XML
