Ultra_rmconverter Sharing violation

[Tavish Muldoon]

(sorry for repost, browser stalled on original post)

I just downloaded a demo called ULTRA_RMCONVERTER.EXE - it is suppose
to convert Realmedia files to mpeg2.

I double clicked the executeable and a dos screen popped up then
disappeared.

I checked the task manager - it is not there. So I try to delete it
from the desktop - I get:

Cannot delete ultra_rmconverter.exe: There has been a sharing
violation.
The source or destination file may be in use.

I virus scan it and run spybot - nothing.

I cannot find the process in the task manager. I reboot and come up
in
safe mode - same error!

Cannot delete ultra_rmconverter.exe: There has been a sharing
violation.
The source or destination file may be in use.

How do I get rid of this file. I did a Google search - nothing on it
about spyware, viruses or sharing violations.
Any suggestions?

Windows 2000 SP3

How would I find the source or destination file? I figured they would
be name the same as the executable. Is this a virus/spyware?

Thanks,

Tmuld.

Ive seen these before, the file no doubt came from a source such as Kazaa or
similar, I'm not condemming you for using it however

So now to tell you how to get rid of this file, your right spyware and virus
progs wont shift em, my solution in the end was to slave the drive to
another machine running 2K and delete it that way, you can boot from the CD
and run a command line and get to the file that way as well.
