Got a problem with deleting pictures on my computer. When I delete them, the computer makes a copy of the picture and puts it back in the folder. This explains why I have 536 copies of a blurry pic I downloaded. Is this a virus? Ran Malaware and Macafee to no avail. Been searching for someone with a similar problem but can't seem to find it. Any ideas? Martyjet |

What process are you using, to delete the pictures?

How, are you deleting the pictures?
Right-click/Delete? You could try using a program like Eraser. -------------------- Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
