I'm going to during non-prime time.  It took me a couple of days to track
down why this was occuring.

why dont you stop the services for trend and then delete the file.  After
all that just start up the services again.

If you try to delete it from DOS, it still is locked but it doesn't take
EXPLORER.EXE up to 100% utilization.

Not sure about Scanmail having the file locked but have you tried del or
attrib from a DOS prompt?

This is going to be a little off topic, but I thought I would post it in
case someone ran into it as well.

I have ScanMail moving infected files.  One of the files that was moved into
the \VIRUS area was a FUN.MP3 that is listed as a short cut.  I cannot
delete due to a sharing violation (believe ScanMail still has locked).  Once
you try to delete or look at the attributes, your NT workstation jumps up to
100% CPU utilization for EXPLORER.  Even disconnecting the mapped drive does
not clear EXPLORER.EXE and the only way to get your workstation back is to
reboot.

I duplicated this on 3 NT workstations.  Two running NT 4.0 sp6a one running
sp5.  Took me 3 days to determine what was causing my workstation to go
crazy.  I sure won't clear the areas from the server console.  I can just
see me killing the box!
