Can't delete! help!!!

[Autokad]

I have a Multi Cd-keygen for battle field that I was in the middle of downloading, when I stop it.

now,even though I uninstalled bf a long time ago,I can't delete the destop icon

the cd gen was never installed so I don't understand why I can't delete it

it says this when I try to delete it : Connot delete Multi Cd-keygen for battle field:It is being used by another or person or program

Close any programs that might be using the file and try again

o, lol, that has actually happened to me before um, you might want to try rebooting or what groundzero suggested, it sucks, I know from experience....

I may be wrong though ::shrug::

Just for the record, I think its pretty neat your title matches your Picture groundzero

so I should create another admin acount and try and delete it then?

If safe mode didn't work. Also I don't know what permissions are set on the file. I can't tell you for sure it will work. I've done it and it worked for me.
