So Brian sends me a link to something to install and check out. Since we pass stuff back and forth all the time I have no issues with installing this thing. So I download it and run the executable. A console window pops up then goes away - hmm. We realize that the file did not download correctly (the file size was only 8 bytes). I tried deleting the file and it said another user or process had locked it. Not a big deal - get those all the time. However after rebooting - booting in safe mode - chkdsk - rebooting again - etc. I'm still not able to delete the file. This sucks because the file is on my desktop - and causes all of the guys at work to laugh at me even harder.
Brian does find this program that deletes the file on startup before windows has a chance to lock it. It worked (lucky for him).

Lucky for me? I wasn't the one with the file locked on my desktop. Lucky for you!
