Cannot delete files: Cannot read from the source file or disk.

I get this message from within my Temporary Internet Folder "Cannot delete
files: Cannot read from the source file or disk".

Does anyone know how to get rid of filles even though this message comes up?

Johnnie, try going to C:\Program Files and look for any Program
Folders that no longer are installed on your system.
If any, delete them. Also, go to C:\Windows\Prefetch folder
and delete everything there.

Rich Barry, thanks, I did delete the Prefetch files. What I really need to
know as well is within Temporary Internet Files there are some sex oriented
files that I cannot delete and when I try I get that "Cannot delete files:
Cannot read from the source file or disk". message.

Do you know how I can delete that crap?

That would indicate you have some sex diallers on your system.

Hit Control Alt Delete, take a look at the running processes. If
unsure ask us, but if you end process then delete from Temporary
Internet Files, you should be fine.

Another easier way, go into safe mode, then - DELETE AWAY!
