delete a security group via the database

We have recently moved buildings at work and have gone from 2 domains to 1
domain. Now when i try and edit the security permission in the properties of
a report i get:
The user or group name 'carfax\domain users' is not recognized.
(rsUnknownUserName) Get Online Help
iis there any way to delete these at a database level or get round this at
all as i need to enable some of our users the functionality to subscribe to
reports and unless i can delete this it will be impossible to do.
Would i need to completely uninstall reporting services fix this problem?I am looking at scripting the deleting of this security group, would this be
the best way to go and could anyone give me any pointers?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

find the invalid user anywhere.
Still pulling my hair out trying to sort this issue.
