I had tried out the program URL HELPER, and all of a sudden there are
over 2,000,000, yes that's two MILLION files in the \url helper\temp
folder. Is there a quick way to delete these... ? They are marked Read
Only. Do I have to change attributes before deleting? I think I do..
this is really a *******sed situation.

Help

Read only doesn't mean it can't be deleted.

have you uninstalled url helper.
if so, then just delete the folder.
or click on the folder, type CNTRL A check to insure the files are highlighted and then DELETE.

if you have not uninstalled it, then you may not be able to delete them.
