I cannot empty my Recycle Bin. Getting a message 'Cannot delete Dc1; access is denied'. WTF is going on here? Using Windows XP.

Try getting into Safe Mode and deleting it. I did a search on one of the computer forums I found, and it seems to be a common issue that has happened in all versions of Windows. Just restart, and as it's booting up, press and hold F8. It should give you the option for Safe Mode, then get into the Recycle Bin and try emptying it. Then you should be able to Restart and everything work fine! Let me know if your still having issues.

Thanks. I actually found I could delete them individually, just not the entire bin. Seems fine now.
