I installed mcfee professional 7 on my xp machine. Well it makes a temp
folder. Well I deleted this folder so now its in the recyled bin. Well the
problem is it will not let me delte the folder. Says, Error delting file or
folder. Cannot remove folder mcafee:cannont find specfic path. make sure you
specify correct path and file name. Now I tried rebooting, reboot in safe
move, reboot in safe mood with dos and tried to delete. and my last resort
was use a startup disk from 98 and use the dos. Well it will not delete and
in does it reads the folder as dc7. Wierd?????
