jpeg file

[angrymom]

My son has downloaded porn from the internet that is
stored on my hard drive as jpeg files. I successfully
deleted most of the files, but there are some that appear
to have no content-- just file names and supposed size of
the file (i.e. 31.4 KB or 90 KB) When I try to delete,
nothing happens. If I double click the file icon (just a
computer logo) it goes to microsoft picture it-- which
shows me a blank screen. When I try to delete the file
the message is: "Cannot delete T-2302~1.JPG Cannot find
the specified file Make sure you specify the correct
path and file name."
While he can't access the file ('cause its not there) I'd
like to get the file names (pretty gross!) off my
computer. Anyone know how? Thanks

Boot into Safe Mode and try to delete the files
