Clearly, it did not "screw" your hard drive. It also did not help matters to mis-describe the problem. You state "...which I can not open, _move_, rename...". Then you solve the problem by doing precisely what you said you could not. You _move_ the file, etc. My guess is Leonid's editor introduced some strange, "non-visible" character into the file name. I think it would be helpful if you do what can to determine definitively the cause of the problem and apologize to Leonid for what was clearly an gross exaggeration. Leonid is problably one of the most inoffensive, patient & polite posters around here.
