Yeah, I think I tried that too. Basically there was something or other
"magical" about that folder. Windows Explorer could delete it, but from
the DOS box is was unclear whether it existed, couldn't quite be
deleted, etc. I don't know if it was the attributes or the desktop.ini
file or just a magic path hard-coded into the system or what... Tcl
killed it without difficulty though. Haskell too. (All the more amusing,
since Haskell is running under a Unix emulator...)

Not programatically. And not on a roaming profiles folder on the server.
