I have got an Desktop Icon (and Dos EXE) which wont delete. I am running Windows XP and have Tried Everything to delete this file - It is not an Process pr not in use but it just wont delete. I get an Message saying "Access Denied" but there is nothing running that file. I have even tried deleting that file in DOS but no luck.

:confused: Any Hints?
Thanks
Michael

363789 2005-06-14 06:07:00 Use move on boot. Seach for it using google. lazydog (148)
363790 2005-06-14 06:07:00 Download KillBox (www.bleepingcomputer.com). It will shift the file for you and does not require installation like MoveOnBoot does. FoxyMX (5)
363791 2005-06-14 06:58:00 I know you say it says it's not in use but have you tried removing it in Safe Mode anyway? mark c (247)
