This sounded pretty likely, but it doesn't seem to have had an effect.
I excluded the entire directory tree nutch was in (didn't seem to help)
then also tried stopping the antivirus service, no effect.
Dang...
But thanks,

You may be experiencing a problem that I did recently.
When nutch deletes un-needed directory trees (like webdb.old) it does so
with a recursive delete, but often does not check to see whether the results
of the file-delete calls were successful. As a result, directories that are
thought to have been deleted can still be present.
In my case, I found that other programs running on my machine (Win 2000)
like a virus checker could have a lock on one of the files that nutch was
trying to delete and so Windows would stop nutch from doing so. The result
was the exception that you report.
In my case I got around the problem by instructing the virus checker not to
check nutch's working files.
