Use iphoneinterface and use the rmdir commend to delete the file you copied there. Simple, no need to get all HELP!

download a copy of iPhoneinterface.exe from various websites for windows, from there it will log into the phone, cd to the directory where you put this file incorrectly and issue the rmdir command. Such as:

cd /System/Library
rmdir Filename.plist

clemente,
If you're using winscp, right click the folder and select delete. If you get an error, you'll need to install the iphone binkit (the commands that winscp/terminal would use to delete a folder are not on the phone by default), you'll have to install them.

binkit: http://iphone.natetrue.com/iphone-binkit-0.06.tar.gz
(put the files that are in that into their repective folders - but all that you really need are a couple commands that are in the bin folder, like rm and rmdir)

As stated in your other thread, CHMOD changed permissions to a file or directory. You use that to set read, write, execute permissions on an object. That is what CHMOD does.
