Thanks for all the help.
I've tried virtually all of the tips and suggestions but still this bugger
is there.
Used our other tools Winternals ERD, EBCD and other Linux boot/file system
recovery tools, but I still cannot get this mofo to disappear
The file shows up in all file system managers as having an archive, system
and hidden attribute (some show read only).
I have tried to remove all the attributes and then delete it but I get the
message that the file cannot be found!! this after the attib function shows
the file listed. (and of course windows explorer/desktop environment shows
it too)
Any other Ideas. This is one of those things that will kill me.
