Uninstalling Frontpage 2002

I'm not sure this is the right place for this, but I need
some advice. I uninstalled frontpage 2002 (I started
using Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004) but I can't delete
the Frontpage\version 3.0\bin directory to delete..... no
matter what I do. Since XP is really not dos based, the
command prompt (which looks like a dos program, but
really is just an emulator) doesn't afford true ms dos
operating and I can't take it out from there either. The
error message is a program or person is using it and to
shut down the offending program. problem is, I can't
find anything using it. I've removed every entry from
the registry and every file or directory that referenced
Frontpage and it wtill won't go away. Re-booting doesn't
help either. I tried re-installing Frontpage but since
it was an upgrade and I erased every reference to it, the
program can't find a qualifying product to even re-
install. Any suggestions? Thanks.

You can not delete that directory. The directory was not create by the
installation of FP, it was created by the installing of Windows and is
actually in use by the OS. So just disregard it.
