I have picked up an exe file that will not let me uninstall or delete. I
know that all I have to do is change the attributes and I will be able to
delete it but I cannot find the function to change the attributes. I have
Windows XP Home Edition.

Al,

Type Attrib /? in Command Prompt. BTW, have you tried deleting the file from Safe Mode / Command Prompt etc?
