Thanks for your patience. This is probably a real dumb question. So my apologies to the real hackers out there. I wrote a "C" program that writes to a text file. I was supposed to put the filename as an argument on the command line. However, I neglected to do so and I failed to include the proper diagnostics in the proper place in the program to exit the program when a filename was not provided. So the program ran and created a real ugly filename. In ascii it looks like k~k^T^Nk^L and in hex it is 6B 7E 6B 14 6B OE 6B OC. I can't figure out any way to remove this file. I would like to be a real man and do it in "C" but I will accept any suggestions in any manner of solution. Thanks =Ralo-> (humbled)
