I have several folders that I copied onto a machine over the network and
these have become corrupted.  I can see them in the folder list and they can
be moved if they are within a folder, but cannot be moved, opened or deleted
individually.  They are showing as 380 bytes in total and as 4kb on disk,
but all should be 60MB or more.  When I try to open them or delete them I
get an error message saying access is denied but no specific reason why.  I
have them all in a single folder and they take up almost no space on the
drive, but I would like rid of them.  

Any ideas how I can delete these, please?  

XP home, by the way.
