Uninstalled the application I'd downloaded it with in the first place (Kazaa Lite)-rebooted into safe mode, only the donloaded files folder was left after the uninstall, so I dragged that onto the recycle bin, in it went..emptied the recycle bin and away it went.. A relief, though I'd love to know why it wouldn't just delete in the first place!!
