Windows will not let you delete the file as it stands. You will get an Access Denied message. However, if you rename the file first (right click / rename) you can then delete it. Windows will recreate the c:\recycled file as soon as you delete anything. You will then see the file you just renamed and deleted in the new c:\recycled file. You can delete from there and it should not come back. I got so tired of chasing around files that I thought I had deleted I went out and got a copy of Window Washer. I think it works great! I hear Evidence Eliminator is pretty good too! My 2 cents. Adam :)
