Deleting files...

Surely you can just log into safe mode and delete the files. Should work since with Safe Mode running barely any programs actually run. but seeing how as that probably did not work for you all i can suggest is that you delete the file(s) through dos if possible.

It's a relatively easy problem to solve� unless like me, you are running Windows XP.

It wouldn't delete when I ended all unnecessary programs (and rebooted itself when I ended these 4 suspicious looking progs that kept coming back on the list too ) and wouldn't delete in Safe Mode.

So I made them hidden on the desktop, and left them for a week.

One day, when I was using WS_FTP Pro to upload something, i looked at my desktop in the open file window and saw them, so I tried to just delete them from there� and it worked.
