Default dos prompt


-----Original Message-----
use taskman to kill "explorer" and all non system
processes (except taskman, duh). Then start new process,
cmd. That prompt will allow deletion of any file not in
use or permission denied. Log out when done, or start

new
task and explorer if you dont need the stuff that was
running.

Notice how much faster things run when explorer is not
running....

The problem is it is loaded on boot in msconfig, I

uncheck the box, reboot and the damn thing is right back
again. I need to get rid of this thing but am not
familiar with taskman.

I need to get to a dos prompt to delete a suspicious

file,
not an msdos window, and was curious how you do this in

xp
home.
