Wes, Thanks for your reply.
I downloaded AdAware SE. However, upon installing it they recommended I
uninstall AdAware 6 which I did (Bang head on table here.) Realizing my
mistake, I went back to lavasoft and tried to download the AdAware 6 version.
However, they redirect me to the SE version.
I tried your recommendation to Show Hidden Files. I was able to open the
file with Notepad, but the option to delete it is not there.
I am not very capable technically. Sorry if I botched your instructions.
Do you have any further suggestions?
