What is the exact error that is coming up when you try to delete it?

"Some Program is using this and can not be deleted" I don't know what using it?

XP I'm assuming. Restart and try again. If that does not work, then click start -> run and type cmd. Change to the directory in which the file is using cd command. Then use del /f filename for deleting the file. If that still does not work, try safe mode and above steps or, as a last resort, there are programs on the net that can force delete a corrupted file. Been a while since I had that problem and Microsoft's website only refers the problem to large images on there support page. To sum it up, you foobbar'd the file

.
