I renamed a filename into

"Symphony X - The Odyssey (Odyssey's Theme [Overture],
Journey To Ithaca, The Eye, Circe [Daughter of the Sun],
Sirens, Scylla and Charybdis, The Fate of the Suitors
[Champion of Ithaca].mp3"

and now I can't play the file, rename it or delete it. I
downloaded a program called GiPo@Utilities which is used
to delete files but when I tried do delete the file with
the program it says that the file is not found. Any
suggestions on how to delete or rename this file?

Can you possibly e-mail me the answer to this problem?

Instead of deleting the file, move everything else out of the folder, then
try deleting the folder. Once deleted you can recreate it and move any
files you removed back to the folder. If that fails, go to the following
website, scroll to line 39, double click "Delete an Undeletable File in
Windows XP" in the right column:

Note, as with any such technique, you should be well backed up before
attempting this option.
