This is not the right group for that. This is for IIS (Internet Information
Services) security only. IIS is a web SERVER.
Try rebooting into safe mode and deleting it

A 'marketing" company by the name of 180 Solutions (www.180solutions.com) has somehow...and illegally...parked an .exe (msbb.exe) file in my Windows XP Program Files folder. The net of this program is that I get assaulted with Pop Ups, Scratch & Win Cards and various other requests for "Do you want to run & install x software?" However, when I try to delete the file, I get an "access denied" message - even when I try to delete from the DOS command prompt. Microsoft has acknowledged this as a problem in the Knowledge Base but, yet no known solution. I can't let this company WIN can I? If so - any tips on HOW TO DELETE this file and better - how can I/we protect ourselves from this intrusive marketing?? Chris ---------------------------------------------- "Access Denied" Error Message When You Try to Delete a File The information in this article applies to: Microsoft Windows Advanced Server, Limited Edition Microsoft Windows XP Professional Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition This article was previously published under Q298345 SYMPTOMS When you attempt to delete a file, you may receive the following error message: Cannot delete filename: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use. However, the disk is neither full nor write-protected and the file is not in use by anyone else. CAUSE This behavior can occur if you do not have the permissions necessary to delete the file under the NTFS file system. RESOLUTION To resolve this behavior, ask the administrator to grant the necessary permissions. STATUS Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
