If you have SST (Supersonic Search Tool) you can just execute

     SST *.&&& -c"del &f"

or   SST -v *.&&&             (verify on each deletion)

or   SST -v -n *.&&&          (no verify)


The file SST_53A.ZIP is available here, and there's probably a newer version
around as well.  (I just don't have it....)  Anyway, any of the above
commands will search the entire logged drive for the file you specified.

SST is an extremely versatile program - highly recommended for any DOS command
line junkies.  :)
