I can't delete a folder on my desktop

[Guest 1800yolk]

When I renamed a folder on my desktop, instead of typing in a word, I typed

"Alt+255". This makes the text disappear. This also makes the file hard to

delete. I can't delete the folder. In command prompt, if I try to delete it,

it says "The syntax of the command is incorrect." I also tried "del *.*" in

the command prompt, but this only worked for other things in the prompt. I'm

not sure what to do, and would appreciate your advice. Thanks, Brian
