Hello,

I have never seen those files before, the main reasons I can think of that they can't be deleted are

1 Windows can't recognise the font,
2 could be malware related
3 the drive they are stored on is read only.

If the files don't matter, could you try to rename them? Am I correct in saying these files are on a removable drive?

Regards,

Alan.

1 Question Isn't drive E a CD drive and you are using a read only CD. Try getting nero or roxio if that helps. If it's malware related download delete doctor http://www.theabsolute.net/sware/ or try scanning it for malware.
