Geek isn't necessarily derogatory.
I don't know how to solve this, but try downloading CCleaner, and running it. It might solve it, it might not, but just try it. It's a really small download and install. One sec, lemme link it.

Some people do find the term derogatory, so you're better off not using it if you're gonna be needing said geeks help >_>

So...I'm a StarCraft geek. Therefore, my suggestion is to get some detection for your ghost files.

Open a new folder, delete it, and see if the splash will hit the invisible ones.

I am proud when others call me a nerd. In fact I use the word 'nerd' as a verb to substitute "studying".

Friend: Hey what are you planning to do tonight?
Me: I am doing some last-minute nerding for the test tomorrow.

Geek and Nerd as they are today (times change meanings).

Geek: A computer know-it-all. Could probably install Linux on your toaster if you asked him to. (humorous exaggeration) When it comes to games and such the Geek cares about stats and strategies and tactics.

Nerd: Plays DND and loves WoW. When it comes to games and such the Nerd cares about the story and characters.

Both Geeks and Nerds are also more likely to be a Dork.

i dont think we should be perpetuating the use of a such a longstanding derogatory term. just because it isnt used in a derogatory fashion in contemporary society doesnt mean that you dont spit on the grave of my (spiritual) forefathers every time you utter its vile syllables.
the world's a playground. you know that when you're a kid, but somewhere along the way everyone forgets it.

I disagree. Computer geeks are just a subset of geeks.

Yeah I guess you're right Mastermind, though computer geek would have to be the larger collection of geeks out there.

again w/ the CCleaner... haha

You probably glitched up your windows by massive deleting. I don't know how you did it, but apparently you did. Not much you can do (it's just a couple of small files anyways) just don't sweat it and format later when you have the chance.
ggyo...
