i have this folder in my d drive which wont delete but if i copy anything to it, that file is accessible here's the funny thing if copy something to it and then delete the folder it goes to the recycle bin but at the same time another folder by the same name is created automatically ...... if i create another folder with the same name i am successful it does not give any errors but when i try to rename the new folder the effects are seen on the other folder (the 1 that is not deleting) also.

It seems that you facing an intrusion problem.....Turn off system restore then I assume that you have a good anti-virus software installed preferably, Kaspersky.
Scan your system and delete everything that is detected by the program.
Next install a good anti-apyware like Ad-Aware pro and scan your entire system.
Reboot after the scan. If your problem persists after this use Delete Doctor from
*www.programurl.com/software/delete.htm

Hope your problem will be solved.

Shovik.
