Well, that would be a problem - we have QA people accessing the server to
test the application.  If it were only once, then no problem.  But we're
looking at transfering files up to 50 times a day (only transfering files
that are considered "done").  So then our QA people pretty much have to stop
work.

There IS a Connection Timeout in the properties of web site in IIS.
However, I think this has more to do with Session timeouts, rather than file
locks.

Funny thing is that using my account through FTP, I cannot delete the files.
Going to the physical server, using the Exact same account, I CAN delete the
file.  Or maybe the "lock window" expired while I was walking down the
hall... 

This is enough to make me loose my hair.... oops.. too late...

If it is IIS holding it, you can probably stop and start the service to
release it

Any way to set that lock period?

IIS likes to lock files for a little while if they have been recently
accessed from the web.  If you wait about 30 mins, they'll be freed.
Annoying.
