Can you not rename it to include valid characters and delete it that way?
Dos (Winkey+R, type cmd, press enter) --> type CD [directory] - if it's my documents it'll be c:\documents and settings\(user)\My Documents\... --> type del [filename] --> hit enter (preferably with a mallet whilst disrobing and chanting around lit candles surrounding your windows XP product box) --> bang, gone.
