I want to make a program that can be minimized to the tray as an ICON that would actively watch for say something like this.

(Toggle Plain Text)

C:\WINDOWS\System32\data.bad

Once it sees this file have the program automatically remove it, and play a cheerful sound.

The program doesn't have to be aggressive maybe check every 30 seconds. But I want to build this from scratch, any language that is VB, C, C++. (GUI would be cool)

This is my first real project out side of a computer science class.
Thank you in advance for any help.
