There's a "blackhole" on my computer somewhy. For example, I go to the path
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\Shortcuts\Backup and Deleted
Usernames\Devin, I double-click Desktop, I double click Devin, I double
click Desktop, etc. However, when I try to delete the Shortcuts folder
completely, it says the filename is too long, and when I try to rename the
filenames, they give me the same message. Can I have some help on this?
Thanks.
 
Scan your computer for viruses. Scan your computer for spyware. Can
you see the file name for the "Blackhole" file. If it
looks like C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\Shortcuts\Backup
and Deleted Usernames\Devin\Desktop\Shortcuts\Backup and Deleted
Usernames\Devin\Desktop\Shortcuts\Backup and Deleted
Usernames\Devin\Desktop\Shortcuts\Backup and Deleted
Usernames\Devin\Desktop\Shortcuts\Backup and Deleted Usernames\Devin,
etc., your computer is messed. If that is the case then Windows has a
glitch and you need to contact their tech support and ask for help.
Very strange case...sorry I couldn't be more help.

I don't think its never ending. I am not sure that is possible.
just tried to create one and couldn't. Try the virus scan an
spyware scan. If they don't turn up anything. Try the tech support
Do you have any idea how this thing was created? Was it a program
directory? When I deleted a profile, Windows just deleted it. Th
files weren't sent to the desktop
