Windows hangs on access to this file

I have a file on my PC which causes a deadlock if I do something with it. It may not be relevant, but the file in question is \movie.dll. My mcafee crashes when it scans the file. I can not rename, delete, or replace without causing Windows hang. CTRL-ALT-DEL does not work and the only thing we can do is power off.

If necessary, use these utilities

  • Windows Photo Viewer cannot open this file because the file seems to be corrupted, damaged or too big.

    I am on Windows 7 and using Photo Viewer to watch 5 tiff files. I can open all tiff files in photoshop or psp, but not in photoviewer. Here, I can open only 2 smaller files. Is there a limit of size on the photo viewer (it seems). The files that I can not open are 1.45
