Hi! It seems I have been hacked. I have several folders that I cannot
delete and some strange files in the root (C:). I have Zone Alarm firewall
  and Norton AV. I have no idea what have happened but I consider myself
not a beginner and I do not click attachments mindlessly or do some other
similar crap. So I presumed that I have beed hacked - I have a permanent
DSL connection so sb might have had a little fun. Besides there is a folder
with the name "tagged by sb".

But the thing is, how to delete folders that have some strange simbols or
just spaces in its names? Native WXP procedure does not work.

Thanks,
