[TriLUG] Read-Only file systems under KNOPPIX

I'm trying to delete malware files from a Windows XP machine by booting 
from a Knoppix CD, then mounting the NTFS file system as RW, and then 
tooling down to the directory where the file lives to delete it.

Problem is that no matter what I put in /etc/fstab, the file system is 
still mounted read-only and I am not allowed to remove the file.

This is probably an easy fix, but neither my intuition or my STFW 
abilities has come up with an answer.

Help please!

Thanks,

Jeff G.
