Windows? NT? 9x? What FTP server software? Do you have console access to the box or only FTP access? I do: dir /X (short filenames) Then delete it by the short name. If the haxor used high-ASCII, then you will need special software to remove the folder (unless you feel like guessing the ASCII values [windows does not print them properly]). I can't remember the name of the software, I could probably find it for you if you let me know the platform etc. I had to use it once to clean up a customer's server.
