There might be another program recreating the files..

You can try using Unlocker (http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/). It removes Windows handling on files.. I dont think it will help in your case because the way to discribed your problem is that the files get deleted but just reappear. This program helps people who cannot even delete files.. But you can try and see if it helps you anyhow.
