Jpg file that can't be deleted

[Chr1s]

Hi Guys.

Am I the unluckiest person to use Limewire? Here's my record, one download one problem that won't go away.

Here's what happened. I installed the free version of Limewire and being a fan of homemade pics I searched for images with the keywords amateur wives. As I was new to the program I thought I couldn't go far wrong downloading jpgs. What do I know?

I downloaded the first jpg in the search window and double clicked on it to view. The windows image viewer popped up with the message no preview available. Waste of time I thought and went to delete it. I right clicked but half the usual options like delete, cut, rename and properties weren't there.

I highlighted it and tried the delete on the keyboard, nothing happened. Since then I have tried everything I can think of. Including trying to delete in safe mode, running 1/2 a dozen spyware programs like Panda, Ad-Aware, Ewido, AVG anti-virus, HiJack This, KillBox, CCleaner, CWshredder........ the list goes on. Nothing will shift it.

It's on my desktop and while you can drag it round the screen it can't be dropped into the recycle bin or even a new folder. It has the regular image icon and although as I say properties is not available for it when you hover the mouse over it it gives the file name, which is 221 characters long! and it says image file 290 kb.

It seems such a distinctive problem that surely someone has come across this. Any ideas that might help please?
