Unfortunately typing unix commands on an NT box would not help out to much.
You two are not exactly helpful and are probably doing a disservice to the
JAMES project by making jokes.

I may not be very familiar with James, but I assure you that I try to treat
everyone with a little respect and answer the few questions that I can.

There might be a problem with this approach.
rm (or the shell), might complain about the expansion of '*' when there is
alot of files.

Workarounds
1/  all shells:
                    find . -type f -exec rm -rf {}\;
2/ in bash:
                    for i in *;do rm -rf $i;done

Remember to 'cd' to the directory where the files is before firing the
command line.
