In fact, the file has nothing on it. It has a name, and looks like a mpeg file, nothing else. When I open the properties, I can see the file name, but none of the other fields are populated. I am unable to do anything with this file. I can't delete it, I can't move it and I can't get it to play. Any ideas?
I've tried safe mode, and that doesn't work. Let's just say this is something I need removed from my computer. Also, I wasn't stealing, this was put on by the author.

Try deleting the entire folder and then and recreating it.
