File share shortcut in a constant loop.

Hello

I have a problem with a file share.  Someone at my company created a shortcut on a fileshare server that goes on in a constant loop.
\\servername\foldername\foldername\foldername and so on and so on.
that shortcut has no security tab and i cannot delete it.

Error deleting file or folder - cannot delete foldername:  The network location cannot be reached.

has anyone got an idea whats going on here ?  and how to get rid of that shortcut.
it gives users problems when searching on the fileshare for it finds the same document over and over again.

regards

Have you run chkdsk to see if there are errors?
