hi everyone,
well i hav 3 questions:
1)there is a folder on my d drive that just can't be deleted (win says it is in use) or opened.i don't know how it got created.any idea how 2 remove it without formatting the drive?

2) my ebooks folder is huge(around 5gb with countless subfolders) .so it takes winxp a helluva lot of time 2 access it.any tricks that can speed this up?

3)there is this file with a .vcd extension. it was orig a video file but i think it's been converted 2 a virtual cd image.however virtual cd 4 can't open it.any clues?

pls give the name of he folder/file here, b4 u delete it. make sure its not a critical file.

u want to know who has locked it ?
use 'wholockme' *www.majorgeeks.com/WhoLockMe_d4429.html

i u still decide to delete it, use 'deletedoctor'

regarding ur second Q

i dont think it makes any sense
it's not like large folders need more access time
maybe the data is all crumbled up

just try to defragment ur drive and do a disk check !!!
