Cannot Install Font

Hi, I am trying to install a font on my server. When I attempt to install the font I recieve the following message. The 3OF9.TTF file is currently being used and cannot be replaced. Wait until Windows is finished using the file, and then try again. I have no applications on the machine. I got to the fonts folder where I am trying to copy the file and there is no 3OF9.TTF font in the folder. Any ideas? Thanks, Steve -- Steve Systems Administrator PSI
