You can try to start up your PC in safe mode using only Command Promt (If I remember correctly holding down (F8 key) just after pressing the On button, you will be taken to a screen with some choices on it) Do not start Windows at all Then you can go to where the File/Folder is and delete manually (just remember that Command Promt does not have a thrash can, so anything deleted is gone forever) Since this is a securety related tread, it might be a good idea to tell you what I use to protect myself, and keep at optimum performance. I might be a bit overprotective, but I ran into a really nasty one a while back. Antivirus: Panda Internet Security Platinum I only use the Panda firewall included. Never use more than 1 firewall at a time Malware protection: Microsoft Antispyware (Beta 1) Free SpywareBlaster (from Javacool Software LLC) Free Ad-Aware SE Pro CCleaner (CrapCleaner) Free (also does a lot of good optimizing performance) Optimized performance with: Wintasks Pro Registry Mechanic Extra Protection: Peerguardian 2 Also I found a very interesting link while browsing the internet, might wanna check it out. Interesting reading (also for the more advanced users of this forum) http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm Last edited by Sleepless; June 22nd, 2006 at 10:20 AM. |
