Well, I guess one can never be 100% certain. However, other than A/V software, I can't imagine what could be holding any of the files open. I'll run some tests again with the A/V software disabled, but I'm not hopeful. But, let's assume for a minute that the A/V software really does turn out to be the culprit. Permanently disabling it is not an option. The corporate police get pretty cranky when people try to do that. Right now, I don't even have enough control of the client to tell it to omit certain directories, even though the server is in my domain and I'm the domain admin.
