Deleting Files

[Natureboy]

Hi, I believe I have a corrupt file in one of my folders. When I try to
navigate to this folder windows Explorer crashes with the following message
"Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close". Norton
crashes at a file inside this folder when I run a scan with the message
"Norton AntiVirus Scanner Module has encountered a problem and needs to
close". AVG Anti-Spyware also crashes at this folder with the message
"Something bad happened in the application". Please could you advise how I
can get to this file or folder to remove it.
Thanks.

What folder? What is the name of the folder or file would help?
Boot in Safe Mode and you should be able to delete it. To access
Safe Mode, press the F8 key repeatedly when booting.
