Thanks for the help so far, but still have problems. Have now managed to empty the folder (found that it was info that I had elsewhere anyway) but still cannot delete the file. Even renaming it isn't permitted. Getting a new error message now though "check the disk isn't full or write-protected and isn't currently in use".
The file isn't showing in my User Accounts, just in My Computer - Local Disk (C drive) - Documents and Settings. I have listed in Docs and Settings an Administrator account, an Owner Account, a Games account (personally set up, could delete all the old ones) and then 3 accounts in various wife's names (one current and 2 old, neither of the old ones were password protected, but were Administrator), and 5 for myself, however where 2 of these have come from beats me but 2 are old accounts that were passworded and now the ones I want to delete. Ideally I'd just like to use the original one in my first name only, and not one that the computer has cobbled together.
Any more thoughts?? Thanks again
