Can't remove it in terminal with root access or in Filebox.
Will attempt a windows xp checkdisk, gparted did not fix anything.
Need to force deletion of this file..
It's been a while I guess... but I'm thinking that was a sparse file.
Sparse files only take up as much room as the data inside them does on disk, everything else is 0x00. Putting it in an (uncompressed) Tarball would expand it out, making the file size larger.
I bet if you used the compressed option, it might work(but take a lot longer).

Deleting the file is what I would do though... If you can't do it with root, I'm guessing you did something wrong command wise.
