Start by posting the name of the file. Run anti-virus scan, run Adaware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/) or a trojan remover (http://www.simplysup.com/tremover/download.html).

Use Ctrl-Alt-Delete to close all programs except Explorer and your mouse driver. Now right-click on the file and make sure 'Read Only' is unchecked. If you still can't delete it, try restarting in DOS. Type 'CD' followed by the name of the drive and folder where the file is located (like "cd c:\windows"). Then type 'del' followed by the full name of the file.
