A folder appeared the other day on my second HDD. It's name consists of about 30 letter and numbers. I cannot delete it. I have tried the Unlocker in both Safe Mode and Safe /Cmd Mode. Still won't delete. Anybody?

I know whats in the folder, a bunch of .dll's. How in the world do I find out who or what created it. Remember, this folder appeared on the second HDD that I only use to store my backups.
