I can't delete a folder on my desktop

[Guest]

I created a folder on my desktop, and when I went to rename it, I pressed
"255" while holding the ALT key. Doing this makes the name blank. However,
when I try to delete the folder, it doesn't let me. I've tried deleting it as
an Administrator, and still have had no luck. I would appreciate any help.
Thanks, Brian

Boot to safe mode and try it again. There is a prog called moveonboot that
is just for this purpose too. It works on XP but not sure about Vista.
Look it up on google.
