N360 question

Used the Nortion Removal Tool months ago to rid myself of all of it's
components, however, a HUGE file labeled N360 Backup still remains taking up
a ton of storage space. When I go to My Computer, C: drive and click on N360
Backup, it "loops" back-and-forth from N360 Backup to C:drive and back again.

I feel unsafe dumping this bugger but it's taking up a HUGE amount of space
and now I can't defragment as I'm at 93% capacity (need 15% free).

I do have an external harddrive - should I just try to move it there and
defrag. then? Or delete the file and if there's problems, try to perform a
system restore?

What's strange, is that I was never able to perform a disck backup or Norton
backup on this laptop because I was always told there was too much
data..............???

Thanks for any insight you folks can provide.

It's a file made by the Norton backup utility, the only thing that could
restore it would be the utility that made it, in other words the file is
next to useless. Personally I would just delete it without sending it
to the Recycle Bin, to bypass the Recycle Bin just press and hold the
<Shift> key when you delete the file. Norton utilities also have a
Protected Recycle Bin, a file that also grows to a very large size, if
you had the Norton Protected Recycle Bin enabled be on the lookout for
other very large Norton files.
