O.P. Huh?  The file that wouldn't go away...
I wonder if any of you could help me out with this strange problem.

One mp3 in my music directory is very different to the others - the reason being is that you can't delete it, you can't move it, you can't rename it, you can't change it's attributes, you can't even open it, yet it is still there.

I've tried using permanent deletion tools or tools to shred the file for good but it isn't showing up as available in the list.

If you check it's location information, it isn't even there. It's like there's a "ghost" of a file on there that doesn't exist, yet it shows up.

I'm thinking that a cluster of my hard disk is corrupted and that one file is that cluster...

But does anyone else have any ideas about how i would get rid of this file?

Thanks very much.
