Certain folders with special names like the names of devices or reserved names(AUX/NUL/LPT1/COM!) can be removed using a trick from the following Microsoft Knowledge base article:
<a href="http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q120/7/16.ASP">http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q120/7/16.ASP</a>. 
<P>The article states that you can't remove files 
with reserved driver names (i.e AUX, CON...etc) since 
a check of reserved words is performed any time you 
perform a file/dir operation. Fortunately, another option exist to bypass the normal reserve-word checks altogether. You may access your directories via 
Universal Naming Convention (UNC). 
<P>
Tou can possibly delete any file with a command such as: <BR>
<TT>DEL \\.\driveletter:\path\filename </TT><BR>
For example: <BR>
<TT>DEL \\.\C:\inetpub\ftproot\com1 /S/Q</TT><BR>
<TT>RD \\.\C:\inetpub\ftproot\com1 /S/Q</TT>
