[WinMac] Can't delete files on NT.

Hi,
We have run into a problem several times with not being able to delete files from NT 4 because they are being 'held onto' by the IIS web server (we think).

The latest occurrence happened after while trying to FTP word documents up to the server from a Mac. Even the sys admin over there can't delete the files locally and now we are waiting for a reboot this weekend to replace the files.

I can understand the file being open and not being able to be replaced if we have the doc open in Word locally, but this is on a remote server. It can't be caused by viewing the Word Doc over http, can it? Perhaps a problem FTP from a Mac is causing? Could Service Pack 5 help?

Any ideas or insight is appreciated.

Thanks,
George
