I read the story and have had a similar problem. Don't be so quick to be a smartass. I simply ended all the programs but the essentials and I could then delete the file.
not to mention restarting your computer is something you should try. sometimes an application that is exexcuted on startup can hold a file hostage. sometimes it won't. it's always worth a try. everything is worth a try.
