Yes, I had that once on our Web server.  A hacker had gotten in and created
a series of subdirectories under one another, and filled them with stolen
software....  I managed to remove all but the root folder at the time and
plugged the hole.  That root folder was not just a basic name, such as
'Unknown'.  It contained some strange illegal characters in it that wouldn't
allow NT4 to do anything with it, much like what you are describing.

Subject: [IMail Forum] OT: strange directory


Hello all,

Excuse me for asking an OT topic. It appeared in my server a directory a
strange directory called (let�s say) unknown. When I try to delete it
windows tells me "The file unknown can�t be delete. The file can�t be
found". Any idea? Thanks in advance

Roberto
