Moving files to Linux need help with problem


Im involved with Movie editing and had all my protected with a folder access program. So apparently the program is faulty. I moved all the files over to Gentoo anyway because it doesnt recognize windows protected folders. But I need to get rid of the files now off my windows partition with reformatting. I altered the prgoram with a text editor then managed to delete it. Unfortuneatly the files still staid protected. The file name used to be "Diln" but after password protection it became .

Diln.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}

Im noit sure what type of file the password would be. Or maybe I could use a Hash decrypter to find out the password or something. Or myabe I could find a file shredder that doesnt recognize windows security.

If anyone has any ideas please post.
Thank you

This may seem really simple (and I dont know much about how windows protect files) but if you mounted the partition in linux, could you just rm that way?
