Files that can't be read or deleted

Comment:
I have some files that I can see listed in Explorer, but can't open, rename or delete. If I right-click the file and select Delete, it does nothing. If I right-click the file and select properties, it says "Properties for this item are not available" If I try to delete the folder it is in,it says "cannot delete xxx.yyy - cannot find file". I even went into DOS and I can list it using the DIR command, but can't delete with the DELETE command. Any ideas? Thanks in advance Phil
