Well, ok. Does the file have any sequence of printable characters that
don't appear in other files in the directory?
Suppose it contains the sequence "wxyz" and no other file in that
directory does. You should be able to remove it with:
rm ./*wxyz*
Might want to run:
echo ./*wxyz*
first to see what will be removed, or use the "-i" flag with rm.
