Either the PATH is incorrect or the file has already been deleted.

If something is not there, it cannot be deleted.

For example...
-------------
C:\DOCUME~1\WESLEY~1.VOG\Cookies\index.dat
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
C:\DOCUME~1\WESLEY~1.VOG\LOCALS~1\History\History.IE5\index.dat
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
C:\DOCUME~1\WESLEY~1.VOG\LOCALS~1\TEMPOR~1\Content.IE5\index.dat
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
Could Not Find C:\WINDOWS\Cookies\index.dat
Could Not Find C:\WINDOWS\TEMPOR~1\Content.IE5\index.dat
C:\DOCUME~1\WESLEY~1.VOG\Cookies\index.dat - The process cannot access
the file

The system cannot find the file specified.
Press any key to continue . . .

From above...

Could Not Find C:\WINDOWS\Cookies\index.dat
Could Not Find C:\WINDOWS\TEMPOR~1\Content.IE5\index.dat

Neither of those files exist, hence the error message.

This error...
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.

Is showing because I just now ran it and Windows Explorer is locking
those files.

Many thanks Wesley, I will check paths, files, etc. to see if I can
find the problem. Thanks again.
