I have a file on my desktop called "YouTube - arabbab8_s Channel_5" It
was a video
"flv". It's 21.9 MB and I can't get it to delete.

Right-clicking it and doing Properties doesn't open the Properties window.
If I move it to the recycle bin (with the keyboard delete button or the
mouse, or Shift and Delete) the "Calculation time remaining" delete dialogue
comes up and the progress bar keeps on flashing, but it never deletes the
file.

Re: hi evry on plz elp me i get tird of that

The download that I have provided to remove the file is from CNET, they are highly respected and I doubt that it contains a virus.

Run your antivirus and then download and run this:
Malwarebytes.org
I have installed the above malwarebytes for my own use and it works very well.

If your antivirus or the above show that a virus is on your computer remove it.

To protect you I must assume that you have a virus. To do less would not be responsobile on my part, but not from CNET
