So I clicked the link in the OP and when the Taurus web site opened I got this message:

Looks legit but when I downloaded the font pack the file wouldn't run. Searched the font name and found this:

So according to the explanation above it seems the Taurus web site may have been hacked. And if you don't have good anti-virus software running (I have Norton), you may get infected.

And I found I can't just delete the files. Now I'm following these instructions:

Well, the good news is that all those years I spent as a command-line maven working MS/DOS and Novell Netware weren't in vain. In order to remove the file I had to boot into Safe Mode-Command Prompt, navigate to the directory (DOS had directories, Windows has folders) where the file was located and delete it, all via Command.com commands. I tried to rename it but could not but I was able to delete it.
