I am not sure if this subject has been discussed on the net before or not, but I have discovered this problem recently and hope someone out there can help me. We have discovered a folder on one of the MacIIs in our lab that has nothing in it, but it will not let us throw it away. It kept coming back with a "File busy or folder not empty" message. ResEdit and MacTools don't do the trick either. Does any of you have any ideas on how we can throw the possessed folder away? Until then, it's appropriately named "Satan" on the harddisk. Thanks advance for your help, Sherry yang@mist.CS.ORST.EDU Computer Science Department Oregon State University
