RE: Viruses
Hi Ernie,
You could try to rename the file, then it can not be called and you can
delete it at your convenience. See my other post for additions info.

Tom,
I was able to delete some of the files, but there are 10 files
I finally managed to quarantine. Attempts at deletion resulted
in "Cannot Delete A0007287.CPY. Access denied. The source file
may be in use." Any suggestions?
