I have two files in a Temporary Internet Files folder that are 175
characters long. The characters are letters and numbers, and the files
are
.htm which open to www.msn.com. I can't remove them delete them, view the
properties, or anything except open them. Does anyone have any idea how
to
remove them outside of formatting the drive, which may not work. Help!

open a command prompt then enter chkdsk /f

say yes

then reboot...

after any file system errors are corrected, they should be deleteable
