Okay ive seen this post before but didnt pay attention because I didnt think I would run across it. Sister just told me that she cannot run defrag on her computer because a file in one of her music folders and she cannot delete the file because it says it is in use by a application. She does have a file sharing program. She says all applications appear to be closed but still cannot delete the file. Anyone with limewire or kazaa had this problem and has the answer?
