It's not a folder... Just a random .exe file that was found on my desktop today. I tried to delete it, but it said it was running. I'm pretty good with computers, so I tried to end the process. I ended all of the non-system processes and it still didn't delete. How can I delete it??

Steve,
I use this program ( Move On Boot ) to take care of this kind of problem, it's freeware and it is a good app. Good Luck

Use CONTROL ALT DELETE and check PROCESSES and see if you can end it.
*IF* you can, then you can delete it.
ALso, check this link to see WHAT the program is and what's it's supposed to be doing....
It MAY be a virus!

try "ctl-alt-del" to get to task master and end task it. then try to use control panel to remove software. if that don't work, try deleteing the program from your harddrive then got to your windows start up menu and delete it from there, too.
