Default Favorites will not Delete


I have a few entries listed under "Favorites" that I
cannot delete. When trying to delete them, a window
appears that says" Cannot delete. File being used by
another user or program" which I know should not be true.
How can I delete these entries?

Al;
Probably Scumware. Visit these sites. Download, install, run, update and
run again; one or all. They are all good, FREE utilities.
The first site gives some recommendations.

1) AdAware

2) Spybot S & D

3) SpywareBlaster

4) HijackThis (some other stuff that may be of interest also)
