In Win Explorer go to tools, folder options, view, look for “hidden files and folders” and select “show hidden files . . .” Now create a notepad text file with the name “Internet Explorer” but NO EXTENSION.
Go to your C: program files and put the text file in there. Delete Internet Explorer. If Windows tries to re-create Internet Explorer, it will fail because there is already a file/folder with that name.
If Windows doesn't allow you to delete Int Exp, you need a little prgramme called "Unlocker' which is very useful anyway.
