Right. I'm just not convinced that it's an extension that OS/2 can't
delete.

How about the old "can't delete it" trick of moving (dragging) the
objects to a floppy?

Or, boot to your Maintenance partition, go to C:\Desktop, and delete
these directories from the command line?

You'll then need to run UniMaint Repair and/or CheckINI to get rid of
the handles.
