Solutions: 1. Try delete around the files which cannot be deleted 2. Delete the files from outside windows where the files are not protected such as a command prompt from boot disk /boot CD for windows 95/98/ME or recovery console in say NT4/2k/xp |

| 176488 | 2003-09-20 02:29:00 | Well i think you find that in varying amounts of instances programs when running will use this and the above will prove true | Captive (3159) | ||
