Will Windows let you drag it to the recycle bin?

If not, try thi

Go to Start>Run and type cmd

This will bring you to what looks like a dos box....at the C: prompt
type:

del "C:\path to file"

Note the space after del and the quotes around the whole path

That's a whole different story than. I had thought you said Win98...but

  DOS....it will delete it. Do you know the DOS command?

  Not really, never was a DOS-ser!! I'm using XP Pro.
