Hey there folks...
I downloaded a movie off iMesh and I can't seem to play it,even with an external programme. So I trashed it but now I can't even delete it. When I try to empty the bin there's a prompt saying that the file might be in use.
Never had this problem before and I'm asking for help from anyone here who has a clue. I'm stuck..I just wanna delete it.
Thanks in advance...
PS I have tried to do a search but the computer can't seem to locate the file.

windows? reboot to fix. reboot, then delete. if that doesn't work, then you just downloaded yourself a spyware!
hopefully the suggested safe mode delete will help you.
i've encountered albeit only once a spyware that stuck itself to the System key in the registry, hence successfully starts even in safe mode.
a killer cleaner little program courtesy of the Net cleaned this crap, and mind you, part of the cleaning process gave win2k the BSOD!
Firefox rules!
