Error deleting file or folder

Guest

Hello. I downloaded to free trial for the game X-com Interceptor. I have the
icon on my documents, and desktop. I double-clicked on it, and it said I have
to be connected to the internet, so I did, and because I have a dial-up
connection, It would take approx. 7 hours to download. I downloaded the file
for about 5 hours into it, and It shut off. I change my mind about the game
and tried to delete the icon off my documents. And I get this message: Error
Deleting file or folder: cannot delete xcominterceptor-dm: It is being used
by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file
and try again. I closed all the background programs, and it still won't
remove. Can anyone please help with this. Thank You, Jim Felt.
These are my scan results with microsoft spyware (beta).
