Here is a trick that is used to delete files or folders that display this error when deleting:

Error Deleting File or Folder
Cannot delete [file]: Acess is denied.
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.

Annoying huh, here it is:

1. Open a command window. You can do this by going to Start -> Run and typing cmd. If you are using Vista, go to Start, then in the search field type cmd or command.
2. Now that you have the command window open, you’ll have to set a schedule. To do this, type:
   

   at [time] /interactive cmd

   and press enter. It should say Added a new job with job ID = 1. Where it says [time], you type in the current time in your computer plus one minute, be sure to set it in military time! (For example; Its 04:47 AM, Then it would be: at 04:48 /interactive cmd ) -I hope you understand military timing.

3. Now, you have to wait one minute or a few seconds until a new command window appears. When the new command window appears, open up task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del), and end the process explorer.exe. (Go to the Processes tab. Select explorer.exe from the list then click on End Task) Now your explorer window should dissapear, leaving opened the newly opened command window.
4. Now, on the window, type in explorer.exe, and your explorer windows should reapear with SYSTEM privileges; wait a few seconds while the SYSTEM user account is set up. Now you should be able to delete that annoying file of yours.

To get back into your own username, just login again.

There are many button combinations around for the Zune, but some don’t work so well, at least for me; so here are all the button combos I found, if you know another one, please comment. Here is another post over this, the website’s called “Hektik” … but I doubt they work…

So here it is:

Then it’s probably because your domain isn’t fully qualified.
Try adding “local” to Search domains (System Prefs>Network>Ethernet)

Although this version is pretty old, let’s say .2 versions old (the new one is 11.2). Anyway, here is the link for WinZip, a powerful compression utility. You know the rest. To learn more about WinZip visit winzip.com.

If you are using dial-up, don’t bother checking this post. But for Broadband users, this really works!

Straight to the steps;

Before you do this, be sure that you know what you are doing.

1. Type “about:config” without quotes on the adress bar and hit enter. If you are using Firefox 3, click on the “I’ll be careful, I promise!” button. And Promise you’ll be careful.
2. Next, on the filter, search for:

“network.http.pipelining“, double click it, and change the value to ‘true‘
“network.http.proxy.pipelining“, double click it and change its value to ‘true‘
then set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 40. Now it will make 40 requests at once.

3. Now right click anywhere inside the page and select new -> integer, and name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set the value to 0.

How it works? Normally the browser makes one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it makes several requests at once, which really helps pages load much faster.
